And she conceived again, and bare a daughter
One of the weaker sex; denoting the weaker state of the kingdom of Israel after Jeroboam, as Kimchi thinks; Zachariah his son reigning but six months, and Shallum the son of Jabesh, his successor, reigned but one month, ( 2 Kings 15:8 2 Kings 15:13 ) :
and God said unto him, call her name Loruhamah;
which signifies, "she hath not obtained mercy": and what follows explains it to the same sense. The Targum is,
``and they added and did evil works; and he said unto him call their name, who obtained not mercy by their works:''for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel;
``but if they return, pardoning I will pardon them;''which will be done in the latter day.
