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.
