2 Kings 9:29 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

In the eleventh year of Joram.2 Kings 8:25 says “in the twelfth year of Joram.” Such a difference is not remarkable, inasmuch as the synchronisms between the reigns of the two kingdoms are not based upon exact records. Moreover, different computations might make the same year the eleventh or tweftth of Joram. (The verse is a parenthesis, and perhaps spurious.)
