This was the word of the Lord which he spake unto Jehu,.... Which was now ful filled in the short reign of Zachariah: saying, thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth generation; see Kg2 10:30 , and so it came to pass; as every word of the Lord does, not one fails; for after Jehu reigned Jehoahaz, Jehoash, Jeroboam the second, and Zachariah, all descendants of Jehu.
