Commentary on 2 Chronicles 24:16

Theological / Devotional

Among the kings. This was an unusual honor. It was doubtless due in part to the respect in which he was held for his religious devotion, to his services to the nation in connection with the overthrow of Athaliah and the placing of Joash upon the throne, to his connection with the royal family through his young wife (ch. 22:11; cf. ch. 22:2), and to the fact that he must have practically held the office of king for some 10 or 12 years, till Joash became old enough to reign.
