Melachim Bais 11:19 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 11:19

And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, and
the guard
Of which ( 2 Kings 11:4 ) and all the people of the land; as many as were assembled together on this occasion:

and they brought down the king from the house of the Lord;
the temple, which was built on an eminence:

and came by the way of the gate to the king's house;
the gate of the royal palace, where the king's guards were placed, and did their duty: and he sat on the throne of the kings: where the kings of Judah used to sit, and this finished the formality of his being made king.

18 And kol HaAm HaAretz went into the bais Ba’al, and tore it down; its mizbechot and its tzelem they thoroughly broke in pieces, and slaughtered Mattan kohen HaBaal in front of the mizbechot. And [Yehoyada] HaKohen assigned the Pekudot (Oversight) over the Beis Hashem.

20 And kol Am HaAretz rejoiced, and the Ir was sheket; and they slaughtered Atalyah with the cherev in the Bais HaMelech.
