2 Kings 14:27 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 14:27

And the Lord said not that he would blot out the name of
Israel from under heaven
Had not as yet declared it by any of his prophets, that he would do it, as he afterwards did by Hosea, ( Hosea 1:4 Hosea 1:9 ) , and was fulfilled in the reign of Hoshea king of Israel, ( 2 Kings 17:1 ) .

but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash;
the instrument of their deliverance from the hands of their enemies, and of recovering their borders as afore time.

2 Kings 14:27 In-Context

25 He reconquered all the territory that had belonged to Israel, from Hamath Pass in the north to the Dead Sea in the south. This was what the Lord, the God of Israel, had promised through his servant the prophet Jonah son of Amittai from Gath Hepher.
26 The Lord saw the terrible suffering of the Israelites; there was no one at all to help them.
27 But it was not the Lord's purpose to destroy Israel completely and forever, so he rescued them through King Jeroboam II.
28 Everything else that Jeroboam II did, his brave battles, and how he restored Damascus and Hamath to Israel, are all recorded in [The History of the Kings of Israel.]
29 Jeroboam died and was buried in the royal tombs, and his son Zechariah succeeded him as king.
