Gill's Notes on the Bible
Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah,.... At the above place; these were the sons of his brethren, called his brethren, as Lot was called Abraham's brother, being his brother's son; for as for his brethren, they had been slain by the Arabians before he was made king, 2 Chronicles 22:1,
and said, who are ye? though perhaps he knew who they were:
and they answered, we are the brethren of Ahaziah; the sons of his brethren:
and we go down to salute the children of the king, and the children of the queen; meaning either the children of Ahab and Jezebel, or of Joram and his queen; for they knew nothing of the death of Joram and Jezebel, and the revolution made in the kingdom, and therefore with great simplicity tell who they were, and where they were going, and on what account.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The brethren of Ahaziah - Not the actual brothers of Ahaziah, who had all been slain by the Arabs before his accession to the throne 2 Chronicles 21:17; 2 Chronicles 22:1; but his nephews, the sons of his brothers (marginal reference). It is remarkable that they should have penetrated so far into the kingdom of Israel without having heard of the revolution.
The children of the king ... - i. e.†the sons of Jehoram, and the children (sons and grandsons) of the queen-mother, Jezebel.†Some of both may well have been at Jezreel, though the younger branches of the royal family were at Samaria 2 Kings 10:1.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 10:13. The brethren of Ahaziah — The relatives of his family; for it does not appear that he had any brethren, properly so called: but we know that the term brethren among the Jews signified the relatives of the same family, and especially brothers' and sisters' children: and that these-were such, see 2 Chronicles 22:8.
We go down to salute, &c. — So promptly had Jehu executed all his measures, that even the nearest relatives of the murdered kings had not heard of their death, and consequently had no time to escape. They were all taken as in a net.
