remembered: Psalms 109:4, Luke 17:15-18, John 10:32

but slew his son: Proverbs 17:13

The Lord: These words were prophetic, and not imprecatory; and should be rendered as Houbigant proposes, in the future tense: "The Lord will look upon it, and avenge it." The event soon verified this prediction; for, before the year was expired, the Syrians came up against Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people, and Joash himself was slain in his bed by his own servants. Many circumstances served to aggravate this barbarous act. Zechariah was a high-priest and a prophet, upright and unblameable in the discharge of his high offices; this murder was perpetrated within the very precincts of the courts of the Lord; and this truly good man was by blood the nearest relative of Joash, and the son of the man who had save him from being murdered, and raised him to the throne! Genesis 9:5, Jeremiah 11:20, Jeremiah 26:14, Jeremiah 26:15, Luke 11:51, 2 Timothy 4:14, 2 Timothy 4:16, Revelation 6:9-11, Revelation 18:20, Revelation 19:2

and require it: Psalms 10:14, Jeremiah 51:56

Reciprocal: Genesis 16:5 - the Lord Genesis 42:22 - his blood Exodus 20:13 - General Joshua 22:23 - let the Lord 1 Samuel 24:15 - be judge 2 Chronicles 24:25 - for the blood Psalms 10:13 - Thou Proverbs 25:26 - General Proverbs 27:10 - own Proverbs 30:10 - lest Ecclesiastes 7:15 - there is a just Jeremiah 20:12 - let me Matthew 21:35 - General Matthew 23:37 - thou Luke 13:34 - killest

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him,.... In preserving him in his infancy, and nourishing him; in settling him on the throne, and assisting him with his advice and counsel:

but slew his son; who also assisted at his coronation, and with his father and brethren anointed him king, as is probable, 2 Chronicles 23:11,

and when he died, he said, the Lord look upon it, and requite it; meaning his blood; this he said, not from a private spirit of revenge, but with a view to the glory of divine justice, and which he delivered not as a wish, or by way of imprecation, that so it might be, but as a prophecy that so it would be.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The Lord look upon it and require it - Compare Genesis 9:5; Genesis 42:22; and contrast the words of Christ Luke 23:34, and of Stephen Acts 7:60. Zechariah’s prayer was prophetic (see 2 Chronicles 24:23, 2 Chronicles 24:25; Luke 11:51).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 24:22. The Lord look upon it, and require it.] And so he did; for, at the end of that year, the Syrians came against Judah, destroyed all the princes of the people, sent their spoils to Damascus; and Joash, the murderer of the prophet, the son of his benefactor, was himself murdered by his own servants. Here was a most signal display of the Divine retribution.

On the subject of the death of this prophet the reader is requested to refer to the note on Matthew 23:34-35.
