This judgment was due to Ahab's idolatry and the influence of his wife Jezebel, which led Israel into sin. Jehu was anointed king of Israel by a prophet sent by Elisha (<a href="/2_kings/9.htm">2 Kings 9:1-13</a>) specifically to carry out this divine retribution. This act of judgment highlights the seriousness with which God views idolatry and unfaithfulness.<p><b>he found the rulers of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s brothers</b><br>The rulers of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers were likely in Samaria to visit or support the house of Ahab, as there were familial ties through marriage. Ahaziah, king of Judah, was a grandson of Ahab through his mother Athaliah, Ahab's daughter. This connection illustrates the political alliances formed through marriage, which often led to spiritual compromise. The presence of these rulers in the northern kingdom underscores the influence of Ahab's house over Judah during this period.<p><b>who were serving Ahaziah</b><br>Ahaziah was the king of Judah, and these individuals were likely his officials or relatives who held positions of authority. Their service to Ahaziah indicates their loyalty to the Davidic line, yet their association with the house of Ahab suggests a divided allegiance. This reflects the broader theme of divided loyalties in the history of Israel and Judah, where political alliances often conflicted with spiritual fidelity to God.<p><b>and he killed them</b><br>Jehu's actions were part of his broader campaign to eradicate the influence of Ahab's house, as commanded by God. The killing of these rulers and relatives of Ahaziah was a decisive move to eliminate any potential threats to his rule and to fulfill the divine mandate. This act of violence, while harsh, was seen as necessary to purify the nation from the corruption introduced by Ahab and Jezebel. It serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of sin and the lengths to which God will go to preserve the holiness of His people.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jehu.htm">Jehu</a></b><br>Anointed by God as king of Israel, Jehu was tasked with executing judgment on the house of Ahab for their idolatry and wickedness.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/h/house_of_ahab.htm">House of Ahab</a></b><br>The royal family of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, known for their idolatry and opposition to God, particularly under King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/p/princes_of_judah.htm">Princes of Judah</a></b><br>Members of the royal family of the Southern Kingdom of Judah, who were associated with King Ahaziah.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/s/sons_of_ahaziah's_brothers.htm">Sons of Ahaziah’s Brothers</a></b><br>Relatives of King Ahaziah of Judah, who were serving him and were caught up in Jehu's purge.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/a/ahaziah.htm">Ahaziah</a></b><br>King of Judah, who was allied with the house of Ahab through marriage and was influenced by their idolatrous practices.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_judgment_is_certain.htm">God's Judgment is Certain</a></b><br>The execution of judgment on Ahab's house by Jehu underscores the certainty of God's judgment against sin and idolatry.

Jehu was an instrument of Divine vengeance, even when fulfilling the projects of his own ambition, as were the savage Assyrian conquerors (<a href="/context/isaiah/10-5.htm" title="O Assyrian, the rod of my anger, and the staff in their hand is my indignation.">Isaiah 10:5-7</a>).<p><span class= "bld">And found.</span>--Rather, <span class= "ital">he found.</span><p><span class= "bld">The sons of the brethren of Ahaziah.</span>--Comp. <a href="/context/2_kings/10-12.htm" title="And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria.

The persons whom Jehu slew are there called Ahaziah's "brethren"--<span class= "ital">i.e.,</span> kinsmen (a common use; so LXX. here), and are said to have been forty-two in number. The Hebrew term is wide enough to include cousins and grandsons as well as nephews of the king. The "princes of Judah" who accompanied them would naturally be members of the court in charge of them, and are perhaps to be included in the total of forty-two persons. Thenius, indeed, in his note on <a href="/2_kings/10-13.htm" title="Jehu met with the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are you? And they answered, We are the brothers of Ahaziah; and we go down to salute the children of the king and the children of the queen.">2Kings 10:13</a>, alleges that we must understand the <span class= "ital">real</span> brothers of Ahaziah, whom the chronicler gets rid of (!) on an earlier occasion (<span class= "ital">i.e.,</span> <a href="/2_chronicles/21-17.htm" title="And they came up into Judah, and broke into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.">2Chronicles 21:17</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/22-1.htm" title="And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the oldest.
