And when they were departed from him, etc.] Having got what wealth and spoil they could: for they left him in great diseases; through the wounds they gave him, and the distress they brought him into: his own servants conspired against him, for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest; for perhaps more than one was slain at the same time; the rest vindicating the cause of their brother, shared the same fate; or the plural is put for the singular: and slew him on his bed; in the house of Millo, where he lay ill of his wounds, and sick of his diseases, and could not defend himself: and he died: of the wounds his servants gave him: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings; (see <121221>2 Kings 12:21).
