Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 3. - The mother and the house of Ahab had become a proverb and a by-word for their evil. In this and the following two verses stress is laid on the evil counsel and the sources of it that prejudiced Ahaziah to his ruin. Although the parallel wants these direct statements, perhaps it scarcely says less, when it says (ver. 27), "For he was the son-in-law of the house of Ahab."
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) He also.--The pronoun is emphatic: he too, like his father. Kings: "And he walked."Walked in the ways of the house of Ahab.--2Chronicles 21:6; 2Chronicles 21:13; Micah 6:16.For his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly.--Not in Kings; an explanatory remark added by the chronicler. (Comp. 2Chronicles 20:35; 2Chronicles 21:6.) Her influence would be used in support of the Baal worship, which was the symbol of alliance with the northern kingdom. . . .
