Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 28. - And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem. No king of the house of David had as yet been buried elsewhere than in the rock-hewn sepulcher which David had constructed for himself and family at Jerusalem. As soon, therefore, as Ahaziah was dead, his attendants conveyed his dead body in a chariot to the Judaean capital. Jehu did not oppose, having no quarrel with the dead. And buried him in his sepulcher; i.e. in the particular excavation, or loculus, which he had prepared for himself. Jewish, like Egyptian, kings seem to have made it their business to see to the construction of their tomb as soon as they mounted the throne. Thus Ahaziah, though he had reigned but a year (2 Kings 8:26), had already prepared, himself, a sepulcher. His "servants" buried him in it. With his fathers in the city of David (comp. 1 Kings 11:43; 14:37; 15:8, 24; 22:50; 2 Kings 8:24).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(28) Carried him in a chariot.--Literally, made him ride. After this verb the LXX., Syriac, and Vulg. supply what the Hebrew text almost demands, "and brought him."In his sepulchre.--In his own sepulchre, which he had in his lifetime prepared, according to the custom of antiquity.
