2 Chroniques 22:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 22:1

And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest
son king in his stead
He being the only surviving one of the sons of Jehoram, the same with Jehoahaz, ( 2 Chronicles 21:17 ) who was saved when the rest were taken captive and slain, by his mother Athaliah, and he made his escape, and that she also escaped is clear from ( 2 Chronicles 22:10 )

for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp;
that is, of the Philistines, ( 2 Chronicles 21:16 ) , which band seems to be a band or company of thieves and robbers, as the Septuagint, cruel and barbarous, as the action ascribed to them shows:

[for they] had slain all the eldest;
sons of Jehoram; the Philistines and Arabians only carried them away captives, but those slew them in cold blood:

so Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned;
being declared his successor by the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

2 Chroniques 22:1 In-Context

1 Les habitants de Jérusalem firent régner à sa place Achazia, son plus jeune fils; car la troupe venue au camp avec les Arabes avait tué tous les plus âgés. Ainsi régna Achazia, fils de Joram, roi de Juda.
2 Achazia avait quarante-deux ans lorsqu'il devint roi, et il régna un an à Jérusalem. Sa mère s'appelait Athalie, fille d'Omri.
3 Il marcha dans les voies de la maison d'Achab, car sa mère lui donnait des conseils impies.
4 Il fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l'Eternel, comme la maison d'Achab, où il eut après la mort de son père des conseillers pour sa perte.
5 Entraîné par leur conseil, il alla avec Joram, fils d'Achab, roi d'Israël, à la guerre contre Hazaël, roi de Syrie, à Ramoth en Galaad. Et les Syriens blessèrent Joram.
