Contextual Overview
12 And Athaliah heard the sound of the people who were running and who were praising the king; and she came to the people in the house of Jehovah, 13 and looked; and behold, the king was standing by his pillar in the entrance, and the commanders and the trumpets were by the king; and all the people of the land were rejoicing andsounding with trumpets; and the singers withinstruments of song, and giving signals to praise; and Athaliah tore her garments and cried, Conspiracy! Conspiracy! 14 And Jehoiada the priest brought out the commanders of the hundreds, those over the army, and said to them, Bring her out from inside the ranks, and he coming after her shall be caused to die by the sword; for the priest said, Do not put her todeath in the house of Jehovah. 15 And they put hands on her, and she came into the entrance of the Gate of Horses, beside the king's house, and they caused her to die there. 16 And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and between all the people, and between the king, to be a people to Jehovah; 17 and all the people went into the house of Baal and broke it down; yea, they broke down his altars and his images; and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. 18 And Jehoiada put the offices of the house of Jehovah into the hand of the Levitical priests, whom David had allotted over the house of Jehovah, to offer the burnt offerings of Jehovah, as it is written in the Law of Moses; with joy,and with singing, by the hands of David. 19 And he stationed the keepers at the gates of the house of Jehovah; and the unclean could not in any way go in. 20 And he took the commanders of the hundreds, and the honorable ones, and the rulers among the people, and all the people of the land, and brought the king down from the house of Jehovah; and they came in through the Upper Gate to the king'shouse, and made the king sit on the throne of the kingdom. 21 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. And they caused Athaliah to die by the sword.
