Notes on the Whole Bible
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · 19th-century historical commentary

In the way of his mother - In this phrase, which does not occur anywhere else, we see the strong feeling of the writer as to the influence of Jezebel (compare 1 Kings 16:31). Verses 1 Kings 22:51-53. It would be of advantage if these verses were transferred to the Second Book of Kings, which would thus open with the commencement of Ahaziah’s reign. The division of the books does not proceed from the author. See the introduction to the Book of Kings return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
