Scripture focus

3. He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counseller to do wickedly. 4. Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellers after the death of his father to his destruction. 5. He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram. 6. And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick. 7. And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.

Ways of the house of Ahab. Compare Chron. 21:6, 13; Micah 6:16.

His counsellor. This item is not found in Kings. Athaliah was a forceful woman, much like her mother Jezebel, and would naturally do much to introduce the worship of Baal into the southern kingdom (see on 2 Kings 11:18).
