ATHALIAH SEIZES THE GOVERNMENT (2Chronicles 22:10-12).

(Comp. 2Kings 11:1-3.)

(10) But when Athaliah.--See 2Kings 11:1, with which this verse nearly coincides.

Destroyed.--So Kings and some Hebrew MSS., and all the versions. Hebrew text, she spake, a mistake of some scribe.

All the seed royal.--Even after the massacres described in 2Chronicles 22:1; 2Chronicles 22:8, there would doubtless be left a number of persons more or less nearly connected with the royal family, besides the immediate offspring of Ahaziah, who are, in the first instance, intended by this phrase. . . .

Verse 10. - But when Athaliah. For parallel to the end of the chapter, see 2 Kings 11:1-3. The words, of the house of Judah, are here carefully supplied, wanting in parallel.
