Context

Jehoahaz Succeeds Jehu in Israel

³⁴As for the rest of the acts of Jehu, along with all his accomplishments and all his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?³⁵And Jehu rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz reigned in his place.³⁶So the duration of Jehu’s reign over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.

Summary

This verse highlights the consequences of King Jehu's partial obedience to God's commands. Although Jehu followed God's instructions to eliminate idol worship in Israel, he did not completely turn away from the sins of Jeroboam. As a result, God declared that Jehu's descendants would only rule over Israel for four generations. This verse serves as a reminder of the importance of wholehearted obedience to God's commands, as partial obedience still incurs consequences.
