旧约 - 列王记下(2 Kings)第11章

And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land.
And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and shewed them the king's son.
And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the king's house;
And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.
And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king.
And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that cometh within the ranges, let him be slain: and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as he cometh in.
And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David's spears and shields, that were in the temple of the LORD.
And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple.
And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, God save the king.
And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the LORD.
And when she looked, behold, the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was, and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, Treason, Treason.
But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.
And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king's house: and there was she slain.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD's people; between the king also and the people.
And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king's house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king's house.
Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.
列王纪下第十一章   第 11 章 

  王下 11:1> 亚他利雅想把犹大引向何方? 

  11:1 这一章接续 9 章 27 节所记的,亚他利雅的儿子亚哈谢被耶户所杀的事。亚他利雅想杀掉亚哈谢所有的儿子,但阴谋落空。因为神已经应许弥赛亚要从大卫的后裔而出(参撒下 7 )。 

  王下 11:2-3> 约示巴为何能把约阿施藏于圣殿里? 

  11:2-3 约示巴是大祭司耶何耶大的妻子,也是亚哈谢的妹子,所以圣殿自然成为藏匿亚哈谢的儿子阿约施的好地方。喜爱拜偶像的亚他利雅对圣殿是不会关心的。 

  王下 11:4> 迦利人从何而来? 

  11:4 迦利人可能是非利士籍的雇佣兵。有学者认为他们是由克里特岛而来,定居在非利士地南部之民。 

  王下 11:17> 耶何耶大使王和民与神立约,实际是── 

  11:17 这里的立约实际上是对那古老之约的重新承诺,就是记载在申命记中,作为治理全国的公义规章。这是指要将这个约作为人民的宪法,这个约实际上已经被忽略了一百多年。可惜的是,在耶何耶大死后,这改革也终止了。 

  王下 11:21> 约阿施由谁辅佐? 

  11:21 约阿施七岁就作王,那么究竟是谁在治理这个国家呢?尽管圣经没有点名道姓地说出来,在他作王的最初的七年,犹大国可能由他母亲和大祭司耶何耶大,并其他谋士共同治理。──《灵修版圣经注释》
