Melachim Bais 10:11

Melachim Bais 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 10:11

So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in
Jezreel
Which to do, and to justify himself in so doing, was the design of what he said in the preceding verses:

and his great men;
his ministers of state and counsellors, that advised him to, and abetted him in his idolatrous practices, and so justly suffered for the same; and perhaps some of them at least were those very men that cut off the heads of his sons in complaisance to Jehu:

and his kinsfolks:
more distantly related to him or his acquaintance and familiars, his associates in sin and wickedness:

and his priests:
who officiated for him and offered his sacrifices to Baal; the priests he kept in his palace, and ate at his table:

until he left him none remaining;
either of his kindred or his priests, that is, that were at Jezreel; for there were others at Samaria, ( 2 Kings 10:17 2 Kings 10:19 ) .

9 And it came to pass in the boker, that he went out, and stood, and said to kol haAm, Ye be tzaddikim; hinei, I fomented a kesher against adoni (my master), and slaughtered him; but who slaughtered all these?
10 Know now that nothing shall fall [unfulfilled] unto ha’aretz of the Devar Hashem, which Hashem spoke against the Bais Ach’av; for Hashem hath done that which He spoke by His eved Eliyahu [See 1 Kgs 21:17-24].
11 So Yehu slaughtered all that remained of the Bais Ach’av in Yizre’el, and all his Gedolim, and his acquaintances, and his kohanim, until he left him no sarid (remnant survivor).
12 And he arose and departed, and came to Shomron. And as he was at the shearing house for the ro’im (shepherds) baderech (on the road),
13 Yehu met with the achei Achazyahu Melech Yehudah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the achei Achazyahu; and we go down to give shalom greeting to the Bnei HaMelech and the Bnei HaGevirah.
