Contextual Overview
12 When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came into the house of the Lord to the people. 13 She looked and saw the king beside his pillar at the gate. The captains and those who blew the horns were beside the king. And all the people of the land were filled with joy and blew horns. The singers were playing music and leading the praise. Athaliah tore her clothes and called out, "They are turning against the queen!" 14 Then Jehoiada the religious leader brought out the captains of hundreds who were over the army, and said to them, "Bring her out from among the groups of people. And kill with the sword whoever follows her." For the religious leader said, "Do not kill her in the house of the Lord." 15 So they took hold of her. And when she came to the Horse Gate of the king's house, they killed her there. 16 Then Jehoiada made an agreement between himself and all the people and the king, that they should be the Lord's people. 17 All the people went to the house of Baal and tore it down. They broke in pieces his altars and the objects made to look like him. And they killed Mattan the religious leader of Baal in front of the altars. 18 Then Jehoiada put the duties of the Lord's house under the care of the religious leaders and the Levites. David had chosen them to take care of the Lord's house. They were to give the burnt gifts of the Lord, as it is written in the Law of Moses. It was to be done with joy and singing, as David had told them. 19 And Jehoiada put the gate-keepers in their places of the Lord's house. This was so no one would go in who was in any way unclean. 20 Then he took the captains of hundreds, the princes, the leaders of the people, and all the people of the land. And they brought the king down from the house of the Lord. They came through the high gate to the king's house. And they placed the king upon the throne of the nation. 21 So all the people of the land were filled with joy, and the city was quiet. For they had killed Athaliah with the sword.
