Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him,.... A friend of his, as Josephus q calls him, encouraged by the dissatisfaction of the people to him:

and smote him before the people, and slew him; in a public manner, the people consenting to it, and approving of it, not liking Zachariah to be their king;

and reigned in his stead; though but a very short time.

q Antiqu. l. 9. c. 11. sect. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Before the people - i. e. openly and publicly. The Septuagint turns the original of the above words into a proper name, Keblaam, and makes him the actual assassin, but without much ground.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 15:10. Smote him before the people — In some public assembly: he probably became very unpopular.
