Matthew Henry · Verses 16–24
A general idea is given of Jehoram's badness. His father, no doubt, had him taught the true knowledge of the Lord, but did ill to marry him to the daughter of Ahab; no good could come of union with an idolatrous family.
2 Kings 8:23
The rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
