2 Kings 21:23 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 21:23

And the servants of Amon conspired against him
Some of his domestic servants, and perhaps his courtiers, not on account of his idolatry, but for some ill usage of them:

and slew the king in his own house:
which they had an opportunity to do, being his servants.
