In the Hebrew context, "the people of the land" (Hebrew: עַם הָאָרֶץ, 'am ha'aretz) often denotes the native inhabitants who held significant influence in societal decisions, especially during times of political instability. Their actions here reflect a collective desire for justice and stability, emphasizing the communal responsibility in governance and the preservation of Davidic lineage. put to death all who had conspired against King Amon and they made his son Josiah king in his place The chronicler has omitted the remarks usual at the end of a reign. See 2Kings 21:25-26 for a reference to sources, and Anion's burial place ("the garden of Uzza"). Verse 25. - The people of the land. The emphatic expression here used (as also in the parallel), with its repetition in same verse malting it more so, may either betray the unfortunate sympathy that the worse element of the nation felt with the bad king and his evil ways, or it may mean that the healthier element of the people insisted on the right respect being observed to the proper succession. The conduct of Josiah from very tender years, which could not have been entirely his own, but must be credited in part to those who taught and influenced him, throws the balance of probability, perhaps, into this latter and more charitable view. The parallel contains two closing verses (25, 26) additional to what we have, giving the authority as the "book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah," and stating that Amen also "was buried in his sepulchre, in the garden of Uzza."
