But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room.
2 Kings 15:25 — KJV
Captain. Heb. shalish. Literally, “third.” Perhaps an officer of some importance (see on Ex. 14:7). In the case of Joram the shalish was evidently the king’s aide, spoken of as the “lord on whose hand the king leaned” (see on 2 Kings 7:2). When Jehu slew Joram, Bidkar, his shalish, was ordered to dispose of the body of the fallen king (ch. 9:24, 25).
Argob and Arieh. The meaning of these words is not clear. The names may be those of either men or places.
Fifty men. Probably members of the royal guard who conspired with Pekah against the life of Pekahiah.
