Commentary on 2 Chronicles 28:7

Theological / Devotional

Governor of the house. Evidently the chief officer of the palace (see 1 Kings 4:6 ; 18:3).

Next to the king. Compare 1 Sam. 23:17; Esther 10:3. The deaths of these three prominent personages are mentioned because of their close connection with Ahaz. The blow that struck them struck the king.
