2 Reis 1:17

17 Assim, pois, morreu conforme a palavra do Senhor que Elias falara. E Jorão começou a reinar em seu lugar no ano segundo de Jeorão, filho de Jeosafá, rei de Judá; porquanto Acazias não tinha filho.

2 Reis 1:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 1:17

So he died, according to the word of the Lord which Elijah had
spoken
How long or how soon after this is not said; however, he died of the sickness, and on the bed to which he went up, as he said:

and Jehoram reigned in his stead:
who was another son of Ahab, and brother of Ahaziah, ( 2 Kings 3:1 ) , in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah; but as he must begin his reign in the nineteenth, or in the latter end of the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat, see ( 1 Kings 22:51 ) ( 2 Kings 3:1 ) and Jehoshaphat reigned in all twenty five years, ( 1 Kings 22:42 ) , he must live and reign after this six or seven years; this therefore is to be reconciled by observing, that this son of Jehoshaphat was made viceroy, or was taken into partnership in the throne by his father when he went with Ahab to Ramothgilead; and it was in the second year of this his reign with his father that the other Jehoram began his:

because he had no son;
that is, Ahaziah, wherefore his brother reigned in his stead.

2 Reis 1:17 In-Context

15 Então o anjo do Senhor disse a Elias: Desce com este; não tenhas medo dele. Levantou-se, pois, e desceu com ele ao rei.

16 E disse-lhe: Assim diz o Senhor: Por que enviaste mensageiros a consultar a Baal-Zebube, deus de Ecrom? Porventura é porque não há Deus em Israel, para consultares a sua palavra? Portanto, desta cama a que subiste não descerás, mas certamente morrerás.

17 Assim, pois, morreu conforme a palavra do Senhor que Elias falara. E Jorão começou a reinar em seu lugar no ano segundo de Jeorão, filho de Jeosafá, rei de Judá; porquanto Acazias não tinha filho.

18 Ora, o restante dos feitos de Acazias, porventura não está escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel?
