2Ki 11:1-3.
JEHOASH SAVED FROM ATHALIAH'S MASSACRE.
1. Athaliah--(See on
2Ch 22:2).
She had possessed great influence over her son, who, by her counsels, had ruled in the spirit of the house of Ahab.
destroyed all the seed royal--all connected with the royal family who might have urged a claim to the throne, and who had escaped the murderous hands of Jehu
(2Ch 21:2-4; 22:1; 2Ki 10:13, 14).
This massacre she was incited to perpetrate--partly from a determination not to let David's family outlive hers; partly as a measure of self-defense to secure herself against the violence of Jehu, who was bent on destroying the whole of Ahab's posterity to which she belonged
(2Ki 8:18-26);
but chiefly from personal ambition to rule, and a desire to establish the worship of Baal. Such was the sad fruit of the unequal alliance between the son of the pious Jehoshaphat and a daughter of the idolatrous and wicked house of Ahab.

2. 约示巴——或作约沙巴
(2Ch 22:11)。
约兰王的女儿——并非亚他利雅所生,而是侧室所生。
从被杀的王子中将他偷出来——或从尸体堆中,因他被当作已死;或从王宫的婴孩房中。
把他……藏在卧房里——供祭司使用的卧房,位于圣殿某处
(2Ki 11:3),
由耶何耶大夫妇独家掌管。然而东方所谓的卧房,并非我们所说的那种房间,而是一间小橱,白天把铺在客厅地上或炕上的褥子及其他卧具堆放其中。这样的安歇之所,既适合作为疗伤的便利之处,也适合作为王婴及其乳母的藏身之地。

2. Jehosheba--or Jehoshabeath
(2Ch 22:11).
daughter of King Joram--not by Athaliah, but by a secondary wife.
stole him from among the king's sons which were slain--either from among the corpses, he being considered dead, or out of the palace nursery.
hid him . . . in the bedchamber--for the use of the priests, which was in some part of the temple
(2Ki 11:3),
and of which Jehoiada and his wife had the sole charge. What is called, however, the bedchamber in the East is not the kind of apartment that we understand by the name, but a small closet, into which are flung during the day the mattresses and other bedding materials spread on the floors or divans of the sitting-rooms by day. Such a slumber-room was well suited to be a convenient place for the recovery of his wounds, and a hiding-place for the royal infant and his nurse.

2Ki 11:4-12.
他被 立 为王
4. 第七年——即亚他利雅登基、约阿施获救的第七年。
耶何耶大打发人,叫了众首领等——若非在一个公开而庄严的节期之时,或以此为借口,他几乎不可能召集这样一次普遍的大会。他向他们透露了年幼之王获救的秘密,并与他们立约要推翻暴君,然后与他们商定了执行密谋的计划和时间(参
2Ch 22:10-23:21)。
耶何耶大在这场阴谋中扮演了主导的首要角色,他的行为完全可以得到充分而轻易的辩护;因为亚他利雅既是篡位者,又属于一个被神谕注定要灭亡的家族,连他自己的妻子对王位都有更好、更强的权利;犹大的王权已由神指定归于大卫家,因此这位拟将加冕的年幼王子,对王位拥有固有的权利,这是篡位者所无法剥夺的。再者,耶何耶大极可能就是大祭司,其职责本是监督神律法的正当执行,而他这次行动,得到了国内民政与教会两方面主要权威的支持和鼓励,并得他们的后盾。除了这一切之外,他似乎也受了圣灵的感动,藉着当时先知的劝戒与勉励而行动。

2Ki 11:4-12.
HE IS MADE KING.
4. the seventh year--namely, of the reign of Athaliah, and the rescue of Jehoash.
Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers, &c.--He could scarcely have obtained such a general convocation except at the time, or on pretext, of a public and solemn festival. Having revealed to them the secret of the young king's preservation and entered into a covenant with them for the overthrow of the tyrant, he then arranged with them the plan and time of carrying their plot into execution (see on
2Ch 22:10-23:21).
The conduct of Jehoiada, who acted the leading and chief part in this conspiracy, admits of an easy and full justification; for, while Athaliah was a usurper, and belonged to a race destined by divine denunciation to destruction, even his own wife had a better and stronger claim to the throne; the sovereignty of Judah had been divinely appropriated to the family of David, and therefore the young prince on whom it was proposed to confer the crown, possessed an inherent right to it, of which a usurper could not deprive him. Moreover, Jehoiada was most probably the high priest, whose official duty it was to watch over the due execution of God's laws, and who in his present movement, was encouraged and aided by the countenance and support of the chief authorities, both civil and ecclesiastical, in the country. In addition to all these considerations, he seems to have been directed by an impulse of the Divine Spirit, through the counsels and exhortations of the prophets of the time.

亚他利雅 被杀
13. 亚他利雅听见护卫兵和百姓的声音——阴谋既在极度秘密中进行,广大群众的异常欢呼更显得惊心动魄,使暴君的疑心大起。
她……进耶和华的殿——即外院,耶何耶大吩咐人允许她进去
(2Ki 11:8), 为要将她擒住。

2Ki 11:13-16.
ATHALIAH SLAIN.
13. Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people--The profound secrecy with which the conspiracy had been conducted rendered the unusual acclamations of the vast assembled crowd the more startling and roused the suspicions of the tyrant.
she came . . . into the temple of the Lord--that is, the courts, which she was permitted to enter by Jehoiada's directions
(2Ki 11:8)
in order that she might be secured.

耶何耶大 恢复 神的 敬拜
17、18. 耶和华与王和民所立的约——与耶和华所立的约,是神与以色列国约的更新
(Ex 19:1-24:18;
「作祂的子民,为祂的产业」,「
De 4:6; 27:9)。
王与百姓之间所立的约是这一立的后果;藉此约,王承担按神的律法治理,百姓也承诺顺服,承认他是耶和华的受膏者。这约的更新所结出的直接果子,便是巴力庙的拆毁和巴力祭司的被杀(参
2Ki 10:27);
纯全的神之敬拜得以全面恢复其古时的完整;年幼的王也被设立在犹大世袭的宝座上
[2Ki 11:19]。
Original en inglés
2Ki 11:17-20.
JEHOIADA RESTORES GOD'S WORSHIP.
17, 18. a covenant between the Lord and the king and the people--The covenant with the Lord was a renewal of the national covenant with Israel
(Ex 19:1-24:18;
"to be unto him a people of inheritance,"
De 4:6; 27:9).
The covenant between the king and the people was the consequence of this, and by it the king bound himself to rule according to the divine law, while the people engaged to submit, to give him allegiance as the Lord's anointed. The immediate fruit of this renewal of the covenant was the destruction of the temple and the slaughter of the priests of Baal (see
2Ki 10:27);
the restoration of the pure worship of God in all its ancient integrity; and the establishment of the young king on the hereditary throne of Judah
[2Ki 11:19].
2Ki 11:1-3.
约阿施 从亚他利雅的 屠杀中 获救
1. 亚他利雅——(参
2Ch 22:2)。
她对其子有很大影响力,后者在她的策动下,本着亚哈家的精神治国。
剿灭王室所有的后裔——即凡与王室有关、可能主张王位继承权的人,且是从耶户的屠刀下逃脱的人
(2Ch 21:2-4; 22:1; 2Ki 10:13, 14)。
她之所以行此屠杀——部分是由于决意不让大卫家比她自家活得更久;部分则作为一种自卫手段,以防耶户的暴力,因后者一心要灭绝她所属的亚哈全家
(2Ki 8:18-26);
但最主要的,是出于个人统治的野心,并意图确立巴力崇拜。这便是敬虔的约沙法之子与偶像崇拜且邪恶的亚哈家之女所结不当联盟的悲惨结果。
