2 Kings 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 10:11

So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in
Jezreel
Which to do, and to justify himself in so doing, was the design of what he said in the preceding verses:

and his great men;
his ministers of state and counsellors, that advised him to, and abetted him in his idolatrous practices, and so justly suffered for the same; and perhaps some of them at least were those very men that cut off the heads of his sons in complaisance to Jehu:

and his kinsfolks:
more distantly related to him or his acquaintance and familiars, his associates in sin and wickedness:

and his priests:
who officiated for him and offered his sacrifices to Baal; the priests he kept in his palace, and ate at his table:

until he left him none remaining;
either of his kindred or his priests, that is, that were at Jezreel; for there were others at Samaria, ( 2 Kings 10:17 2 Kings 10:19 ) .

2 Kings 10:11 In-Context

9 The next morning Jehu went out. He stood in front of all of the people. He said, "You aren't guilty of doing anything wrong. I'm the one who made plans against my master Joram. I killed him. But who killed all of these?
10 I want you to know that the LORD has spoken against Ahab's royal house. Not a word of what he has said will fail. The LORD has done exactly what he promised through his servant Elijah."
11 So Jehu killed everyone from Ahab's family who was in Jezreel. He also killed all of Ahab's chief men. And he killed Ahab's close friends and his priests. He didn't leave anyone in Ahab's family alive.
12 Then Jehu started out for Samaria. At Beth Eked of the Shepherds,
13 he saw some people. They were relatives of Ahaziah, the king of Judah. Jehu asked them, "Who are you?" They said, "We are Ahaziah's relatives. We've come down to visit the families of the king and of his mother."
