Commentary
And the king of Israel went to his house heavy and displeased,.... With the prophet for what he had said, and with himself for what he had done in letting Benhadad go; the Targum is, he was
"troubled and grieved,''
not so much for the sin he had committed, as for the punishment of it on him and his people:
and came to Samaria; with a heavy heart, for the message of the prophet had spoiled the joy of his victory.
