Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the Lord said unto Jehu,.... By a prophet, he not being one himself; and this is generally supposed, by the Jews w, to be Jonah the son of Amittai:
because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in mine eyes: in rooting out the idolatry of Baal, which was right in the sight of God, and was materially a good work, though it might not be done from a good principle, nor every step taken in doing it justifiable:
and hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in mine heart: that he had decreed within himself should be done, and had foretold by his prophets would be done, the doing of which was acceptable and well pleasing to him:
thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel; as they did, namely, Jehoahaz, Joash, Jeroboam, and Zachariah, though the last reigned but six months, just enough to fulfil this promise.
w Seder Olam Rabba, c. 19.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And the Lord said unto Jehu - Probably by the mouth of Elisha. To a certain extent Jehuâs measures were acts of obedience, for which God might see fit to assign him a temporal reward.
Thy children ... - This was accomplished in the persons of Jehoahaz, Joash, Jeroboam, and Zachariah, the son, grandson, great-grandson, and great-great-grandson of Jehu (compare the marginal references). No other family sat upon the throne of Israel so long. The house of Omri, which furnished four kings, held the crown for three generations only and for less than 50 years - that of Jehu reigned for five generations and for more than 100 years.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 30. Thy children of the fourth generation — These four descendants of Jehu were Jehoahaz, Jehoash, Jeroboam the second, and Zechariah; see 2 Kings 14:0 and 2 Kings 15:0. This was all the compensation Jehu had in either world, as a recompense of his zeal for the Lord.
