“The end of his reign. - Ch2 28:27. Ahaz indeed both died and was buried in the city, in Jerusalem (as Kg2 16:20), but was not laid in the graves of the kings, because he had not ruled like a king of the people of God, the true Israel. Since the name Israel is used in a pregnant sense, as in Ch2 28:19, the terms in which the place where he died is designated, "in the city, in Jerusalem," would seem to have been purposely selected to intimate that Ahaz, because he had not walked during life like his ancestor David, was not buried along with David when he died. Next: 2 Chronicles Chapter 29”
