Contextual Overview
16Then Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram was lying there. Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram. 17Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel and he saw the company of Jehu as he came, and said, "I see a company." And Joram said, "Take a horseman and send him to meet them and let him say, ‘Is it peace?'" 18So a horseman went to meet him and said, "Thus says the king, ‘Is it peace?'" And Jehu said, "What have you to do with peace? Turn behind me." And the watchman declared saying, "The messenger came to them, but he did not return." 19Then he sent out a second horseman. And he came to them and said, "Thus says the king, ‘Is it peace?'" And Jehu answered, "What have you to do with peace? Turn behind me." 20And the watchman declared saying, "He came up to them, but he did not return; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives in madness." 21Then Joram said, "Get ready." And they made his chariot ready. Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu and found him in the property of Naboth the Jezreelite. 22Now it happened that when Joram saw Jehu, he said, "Is it peace, Jehu?" And he answered, "What peace, so long as the harlotries of your mother Jezebel and her sorceries are so many?" 23So Joram turned about and fled and said to Ahaziah, "There is deception, O Ahaziah!" 24And Jehu drew his bow with his full strength and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went through his heart and he crouched down in his chariot. 25Then Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, "Lift him up and cast him into the property of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite, for I remember when you and I were riding together after Ahab his father, that Yahweh lifted up this oracle against him:

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah. In 2 Kings 8:25, it is said to be in the twelfth year of his reign; it was at the close of the eleventh, and the beginning of the twelfth; or he began to reign with his father in the eleventh as here, and in the twelfth as there, when his father was dead.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
In the eleventh year - The twelfth according to 2 Kings 8:25. The discrepancy may be best explained from two ways of reckoning the accession of Ahaziah, who is likely to have been regent for his father during at least one year. See 2 Chronicles 21:19.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 29. In the eleventh year of Joram — The note in our margin contains as good an account of this chronological difficulty as can be reasonably required: Then he began to reign as viceroy to his father in his sickness; 2 Chronicles 21:18-19. But in Joram's twelfth year he began to reign alone; 2 Kings 8:26.
