2Ch 22:1-9.
AHAZIAH SUCCEEDING JEHORAM, REIGNS WICKEDLY.

(2Ch 21:17).
All his older brothers having been slaughtered by the Arab marauders, the throne of Judah rightfully belonged to him as the only legitimate heir.

2. 亚哈谢登基的时候年四十二岁——（参
2Ki 8:26）。
按那段经文，他登基是在二十二岁之年；而按此处，是在他母家王国之第四十二年 [莱特富特（LIGHTFOOT）]。「亚哈谢若在二十二岁登基，那么他必生于其父十九岁之年。如此看来他有兄长似乎奇怪；但在东方人早婚，王室贵胄除正室之外通常还有妾侍，约兰也是如此
(2Ch 21:17)；
所以他在十九岁时已可有数子，并不为奇」[基尔（KEIL）]（参
2Ch 21:20； 2Ki 8:17）。
亚她利雅是暗利的女儿——更准确地说应是「孙女」。这说法较为宽泛，因其目的不过是表明她属于那个拜偶像的家族而已。
英文原文
2. Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign--(Compare
2Ki 8:26).
According to that passage, the commencement of his reign is dated in the twenty-second year of his age, and, according to this, in the forty-second year of the kingdom of his mother's family [LIGHTFOOT]. "If Ahaziah ascended the throne in the twenty-second year of his life, he must have been born in his father's nineteenth year. Hence, it may seem strange that he had older brothers; but in the East they marry early, and royal princes had, besides the wife of the first rank, usually concubines, as Jehoram had
(2Ch 21:17);
he might, therefore, in the nineteenth year of his age, very well have several sons" [KEIL] (compare
2Ch 21:20; 2Ki 8:17).
Athaliah the daughter of Omri--more properly, "granddaughter." The expression is used loosely, as the statement was made simply for the purpose of intimating that she belonged to that idolatrous race.

3, 4. 他母亲给他作主谋……他们也给他作主谋——这位毫无主见的王完全听凭他母亲及其亲属的影响摆布。亚她利雅和她的儿子引进了全面的道德败坏，使偶像崇拜成为朝廷和全国的宗教。受他们的影响，他不仅随从北方王国的宗教，还参与了一次进攻基列拉末的新远征（参
2Ki 9:10）。
英文原文
3, 4. his mother was his counsellor . . . they were his counsellors--The facile king surrendered himself wholly to the influence of his mother and her relatives. Athaliah and her son introduced a universal corruption of morals and made idolatry the religion of the court and the nation. By them he was induced not only to conform to the religion of the northern kingdom, but to join a new expedition against Ramoth-gilead (see
2Ki 9:10).

5. 去……与亚兰王哈薛争战——可以一提的是，作为这段圣史极细微却重要的印证，耶户和与他同时代的哈薛的名字，都已在亚述的雕刻上被发现；此外也有论及西顿王谒巴力的记载——他正是耶洗别的父亲。
英文原文
5. went . . . to war against Hazael, king of Syria--It may be mentioned as a very minute and therefore important confirmation of this part of the sacred history that the names of Jehu and Hazael, his contemporary, have both been found on Assyrian sculptures; and there is also a notice of Ithbaal, king of Sidon, who was the father of Jezebel.

6. 亚撒利雅下去——即从基列的拉末下去，探望以色列王——他因耶户叛乱的风声而逃到耶斯列，正在那里养伤。
英文原文
6. Azariah went down--that is, from Ramoth-gilead, to visit the king of Israel, who was lying ill of his wounds at Jezreel, and who had fled there on the alarm of Jehu's rebellion.

9. 他搜索亚哈谢，他们就拿住他（因为他藏在撒玛利亚）——（参
2Ki 9:27-29）。
两处的记载很容易调和。「亚哈谢先逃到园子之屋，又逃到撒玛利亚；但就在他藏匿之处，被追击他的耶户的人拿住，带到仍在耶斯列附近或其中的耶户那里，奉其命在以伯莲旁边的古珥山上、在他的车中被杀；即被箭射成致命伤，以致他再次逃亡时死于米吉多」[基尔（KEIL）]。耶户将尸首交由犹大王的随从处置，他们将其运到耶路撒冷；因敬重其外祖父约沙法的缘故，将其葬于诸王的陵墓中，得享尊荣的葬礼。
这样亚哈谢的家无力保守国权——他的众子年纪太小，不能执掌国政，而其余王室贵胄都已被耶户所杀
(2Ch 22:8)。
英文原文
9. he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (for he was hid in Samaria)--(compare
2Ki 9:27-29).
The two accounts are easily reconciled. "Ahaziah fled first to the garden house and escaped to Samaria; but was here, where he had hid himself, taken by Jehu's men who pursued him, brought to Jehu, who was still near or in Jezreel, and at his command slain at the hill Gur, beside Ibleam, in his chariot; that is, mortally wounded with an arrow, so that he, again fleeing, expired at Megiddo" [KEIL]. Jehu left the corpse at the disposal of the king of Judah's attendants, who conveyed it to Jerusalem, and out of respect to his grandfather Jehoshaphat's memory, gave him an honorable interment in the tombs of the kings.
So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom--His children were too young to assume the reins of government, and all the other royal princes had been massacred by Jehu
(2Ch 22:8).

亚她利雅剿灭王室后裔、唯约阿施获救，篡夺国位
10. 亚她利雅……起来剿灭王室所有的后裔——（参看
2Ki 11:1-3
的注释）。
她因亚哈王室被屠而发狂，决意使大卫王室遭受同样的命运。她知道耶户既奉命要除灭亚哈的全族，便预料他会将刀剑也伸向自己。她预其行动，决意篡位并剿灭「王室后裔」作为唯一的防御与保障——一来因为他们敌挡她所决意维护的腓尼基巴力崇拜，二来因为若有一位幼王子登基，其母便会在太后之尊上取代亚她利雅。
英文原文
2Ch 22:10-12.
ATHALIAH, DESTROYING THE SEED ROYAL SAVE JOASH, USURPS THE KINGDOM.
10. Athaliah . . . arose and destroyed all the seed royal--(See on
2Ki 11:1-3).
Maddened by the massacre of the royal family of Ahab, she resolved that the royal house of David should have the same fate. Knowing the commission which Jehu had received to extirpate the whole of Ahab's posterity, she expected that he would extend his sword to her. Anticipating his movements, she resolved, as her only defense and security, to usurp the throne and destroy "the seed royal," both because they were hostile to the Phœnician worship of Baal, which she was determined to uphold, and because, if one of the young princes became king, his mother would supersede Athaliah in the dignity of queen mother.

12. 他和他们一同藏在神殿里——与祭司职分有关的某些人有权居住在外墙内的房屋中，而外墙以内的一切常被称为圣殿。耶何耶大和他的家人就住在这些房间中的一间。
英文原文
12. he was with them hid in the house of God--Certain persons connected with the priesthood had a right to occupy the buildings in the outer wall, and all within the outer wall was often called the temple. Jehoiada and his family resided in one of these apartments.
2Ch 22:1-9.
亚哈谢接续约兰作王，行恶道
1. 耶路撒冷的居民立亚哈谢……为王——即约哈斯
(2Ch 21:17)。
他的众兄长既已被阿拉伯的劫匪所杀，犹大的王位按理便归属于他，因他是唯一合法的继承人。
