Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the word of the Lord came to Jehu the son of Hanani,.... The seer that reproved Asa, 2 Chronicles 16:7, so that this man was the son of a prophet then living, and was a young man; for we hear of him several years after reproving Jehoshaphat, 2 Chronicles 19:2, and as a writer of history, 2 Chronicles 20:34, the prophecy that came to him from the Lord was
against Baasha; king of Israel:
saying; as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Hanani, the father of Jehu, was seer to Asa in the kingdom of Judah 2 Chronicles 16:7-10. His son Jehu, who here discharges the same office in the kingdom of Israel, appears at a later date as an inhabitant of Jerusalem where he prophesied under Jehoshaphat, whom he rebuked on one occasion. He must have lived to a great age, for he outlived Jehoshaphat, and wrote his life (marginal references).
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XVI
Jehu the prophet denounces the destruction of Baasha,1-7.
Zimri conspires against him, and slays him and his family, and
reigns seven days, 8-15.
The people make Omri king, and besiege Zimri in Tirzah; who,
finding no way to escape, sets fire to his palace, and consumes
himself in it, 16-20.
The people are divided, half following Tibni, and half Omri;
the latter faction overcomes the former, Tibni is slain, and
Omri reigns alone, 21-23.
He founds Samaria, 24.
His bad character and death, 25-28.
Ahab reigns in his stead; marries Jezebel, restores idolatry,
and exceeds his predecessors in wickedness, 29-33.
Hiel the Beth-elite rebuilds Jericho, 34.
NOTES ON CHAP. XVI
Verse 1 Kings 16:1. Then the word of the Lord came to Jehu — Of this prophet we know nothing but from this circumstance. It appears from 2 Chronicles 16:7-10, that his father Hanani was also a prophet, and suffered imprisonment in consequence of the faithful discharge of his ministry to Asa.
