Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(4) Wherefore.--And he did the evil. So 2Kings 8:27.For they were his counsellors.--Or, became.To his destruction.--Literally, to destruction to him, the same peculiar expression being used which occurred in 2Chronicles 20:23. This last half of the verse is evidently the chronicler's own free expansion or interpretation of the words of Kings, "for he was son-in-law of the house of Ahab."Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewAnd he didוַיַּ֧עַשׂ (way·ya·‘aś)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 6213: To do, makeevilהָרַ֛ע (hā·ra‘)Article | Adjective - masculine singularStrong's 7451: Bad, evilin the sightבְּעֵינֵ֥י (bə·‘ê·nê)Preposition-b | Noun - cdcStrong's 5869: An eye, a fountainof the LORD,יְהוָ֖ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelas the houseכְּבֵ֣ית (kə·ḇêṯ)Preposition-k | Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 1004: A houseof Ahab [had done],אַחְאָ֑ב (’aḥ·’āḇ)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 256: Ahab -- 'father's brother', a king of Israel, also a false prophetforכִּי־ (kî-)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctionto hisלֽוֹ׃ (lōw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's Hebrew destructionלְמַשְׁחִ֥ית (lə·maš·ḥîṯ)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 4889: Destructive, destructiontheyהֵ֜מָּה (hêm·māh)Pronoun - third person masculine pluralStrong's 1992: Theywereהָֽיוּ־ (hā·yū-)Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person common pluralStrong's 1961: To fall out, come to pass, become, behisל֣וֹ (lōw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's Hebrew counselorsיֽוֹעֲצִ֗ים (yō·w·‘ă·ṣîm)Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine pluralStrong's 3289: To advise, to deliberate, resolveafterאַחֲרֵ֛י (’a·ḥă·rê)PrepositionStrong's 310: The hind or following partthe deathמ֥וֹת (mō·wṯ)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 4194: Death, the dead, their place, state, pestilence, ruinof his father.אָבִ֖יו (’ā·ḇîw)Noun - masculine singular construct | third person masculine singularStrong's 1: FatherJump to PreviousAdvisers Ahab Counsellors Counselors Death Destruction Evil Eyes Family Father's House Sight Undoing Wherefore
