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 restored Israel's boundaries from the border of Hamath to the Dead Sea as the LORD God of Israel predicted through his servant Jonah, the prophet from Gath Hepher and the son of Amittai.
26 The LORD did this because he saw how bitterly everyone in Israel was suffering. No slave or free person could help Israel.
27 Since the LORD had said he was not going to wipe out Israel's name completely, he saved them through Jeroboam, son of Jehoash.
28 Isn't everything else about Jeroboam--everything he did, his heroic acts when he fought, how he recovered Damascus and Hamath for Israel --written in the official records of the kings of Israel?
29 Jeroboam lay down in death with his ancestors, the kings of Israel. His son Zechariah succeeded him as king.
