2 Kings 15:10
"And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him,.... A friend of his, as Josephus (q) calls him, encouraged by the dissatisfaction of the people to him: and smote him

before the people, and slew him; in a public manner, the people consenting to it, and approving of it, not liking Zachariah to be their king: and reigned in his stead; though but a very short time. (q) Antiqu. l. 9. c. 11. sect. 1.
