“Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant's sake, as he promised him to give him alway a light, and to his children.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
8:16-24 A general idea is given of Jehoram's badness. His father, no doubt, had him taught the true knowledge of the Lord, but did ill to marry him to the daughter of Ahab; no good could come of union with an idolatrous family.
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
