He dying, Hezekiah succeeds him Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim The name "Zichri" in Hebrew means "memorable" or "renowned." This highlights the significance of his actions in the narrative. Ephraim, one of the tribes of Israel, was known for its strength and influence. The mention of Zichri as a "mighty man" underscores his valor and capability as a warrior. Historically, Ephraim was often at the forefront of Israel's military endeavors, and Zichri's actions here are a testament to the tribe's martial prowess. killed Maaseiah the king’s son Azrikam the officer in charge of the palace Elkanah, the second to the king Azrikam the governor of the house--i.e., of the royal house, or palace. Azrikam was nagid, "prince" or superintendent of the palace, a high court official. (Comp. 1Kings 4:6; 1Kings 18:3.) Elkanah . . . next to the king.--See margin. Elkanah was grand vizier. (Comp. 1Samuel 23:17; Esther 10:3.) The writer mentions the deaths of these three personages, because of their intimate connection with Ahaz, whose punishment he is describing. The blow which struck them struck the king. (Comp. 2Chronicles 24:23.) . . . Verse 7. - The king's son. This can scarcely mean the child of Ahaz, considering Ahaz's age; some think a brother of the present king, son of Jotham, may be intended. We have also to fall back upon the use of the phrase, "king's son," for some special official of the king or court (see note on 2 Chronicles 18:25; and its parallel, 1 Kings 22:26). The governor of the house; Revised Version, ruler. We have probably a sufficient clue to this designation in 1 Kings 4:6; and the designation itself, 2 Chronicles 18:3; 2 Kings 18:18; 2 Chronicles 19:11. Next to the king; Hebrew, מִשְׁנֵה הַמֶּלֶך; literally, therefore, the next of the king, the general meaning of which expression cannot be doubtful (comp. 1 Chronicles 16:5; Esther 10:3; Nehemiah 11:9), but the exacter scope and functions of the person under the kings of the divided kingdom thus designated is less certain. It is naturally to be supposed his place may have been king's deputy in councils in his absence, or in and over the city itself, when he was at a distance with an army.Parallel Commentaries ...
