Contextual Overview

10 It was in the thirty-seventh year of Yo'ash king of Y'hudah that Yo'ash the son of Y'ho'achaz began his rule over Isra'el in Shomron; he ruled for sixteen years. 11 He did what was evil from Adonai 's perspective and did not turn from all the sins of Yarov‘am the son of N'vat, who made Isra'el sin; on the contrary, he lived in this sinful way. 12 Other activities of Yo'ash, all his accomplishments and his power in fighting Amatzyah king of Y'hudah are recorded in the Annals of the Kings of Isra'el. 13 Yo'ash slept with his ancestors, and Yarov‘am occupied his throne. Yo'ash was buried in Shomron with the kings of Isra'el. 14 Elisha was now ill with the disease from which he would eventually die. Yo'ash the king of Isra'el came down to visit him and wept over him; he said, "My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Isra'el!" 15 Elisha said to him, "Bring a bow and arrows"; and he brought him a bow and arrows. 16 He said to the king of Isra'el, "Put your hand on the bow"; and he put his hand on it. Then Elisha laid his hands on the king's hands 17 and said, "Open the east window." He opened it. Elisha said, "Shoot"; and he shot. He said, " Adonai 's arrow of victory, the arrow of victory against Aram! You will defeat Aram completely at Afek!" 18 He said, "Take the arrows"; and he took them. He told the king of Isra'el, "Strike the ground." He struck three times, then stopped. 19 The man of God became angry with him; he said, "You should have struck five or six times; then you would have defeated Aram completely. As it is, you will defeat Aram only three times."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Joash slept with his fathers,.... Or died:

and Jeroboam sat upon his throne; who was his son; it is not said that he began to sit on it, or to reign, nor to reign in his father's stead; hence it is concluded, as by Kimchi and others, that his father set him on his throne in his lifetime; and the Jewish chronology l expressly asserts that he reigned with him one year:

and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; see

2 Kings 13:9, the history of his life and actions does not cease here, but, after an account of the sickness and death of Elisha, it is reassumed, which was necessary to interpose to lead on to it.

l Seder Olam Rabba, c. 19.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
