This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Ki_10:15 And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him: and he saluted him, and said to him, Is thine heart right, as my heart [is] with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give [me] thine hand. And he gave [him] his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
Ver. 15. He lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab.] A Kenite of Jethro’s stock, {1Ch_2:55} famous for his piety and holy life, and highly esteemed of the people. See Jer_35:6. Josephus saith, that he was of Jehu’s old acquaintance. Whether he were or not, now he desires his approbation, and therefore takes him along.
Is thine heart right, as my heart is?] Here he prefers himself before Jonadab; whereas sincerity is better conceited of another, suspicious of itself. See Joh_21:15.
And Jehonadab answered, It is.] Heb., It is and it is; i.e., Assuredly it is.
