SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:23

Y los siervos de Amón conspiraron contra él, y mataron al rey en su casa.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 21:23

Verse 23. The servants of Amon conspired] What their reason was for slaying their king we cannot tell. It does not seem to have been a popular act, for the people of the land rose up and slew the regicides. We hear enough of this man when we hear that he was as bad as his father was in the beginning of his reign, but did not copy his father's repentance.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 23. And the servants of Amon conspired against him , etc.] Some of his domestic servants, and perhaps his courtiers, not on account of his idolatry, but for some ill usage of them: and slew the king in his own house : which they had an opportunity to do, being his servants.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 19-26 - Amon profaned God's house with his idols; and God suffered his house to be polluted with his blood. How unrighteous soever they were that di it, God was righteous who suffered it to be done. Now was a happ change from one of the worst, to one of the best of the kings of Judah Once more Judah was tried with a reformation. Whether the Lord bear long with presumptuous offenders, or speedily cuts them off in their sins, all must perish who persist in refusing to walk in his ways __________________________________________________________________
