Melachim Bais 10:3 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 10:3

Look even out the best and meetest of your master's sons
Most fit for government, whether on account of age or proper qualifications, and wisdom, courage

and set him on his father's throne;
proclaim him king:

and fight for your master's house;
that the crown may continue in his family; all which he did not desire might be, but in this sarcastic and sneering manner dares them to do it.

Melachim Bais 10:3 In-Context

1 0 And Ach’av had seventy banim in Shomron. And Yehu wrote sefarim (letters), and sent to Shomron, unto the sarim of Yizre’el, to the zekenim, and to the omenim Ach’av, saying,
2 Now as soon as this sefer cometh to you, seeing your adon’s banim are with you, and there are with you merkavot and susim, a fortified city also, and neshek (weapons);
3 Look even out the tov (best) and yashar of your adon’s banim, and set him on kisse aviv, and fight for the Bais adoneichem.
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Hinei, two melachim [See 2Kgs 9:24, 27] stood not before him; how then shall we stand?
5 And he that was over the Bais (Palace), and he that was over the Ir, the zekenim also, and the omenim (guardians [of the royal family]), sent to Yehu, saying, We are thy avadim, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not appoint any melech; do thou that which is tov in thine eyes.
