2Ki_11:18 And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
Ver. 18. And brake it down.] As Israel had done before them.
And the priest.] Jehoiada. See on 2Ki_11:9.
Over the house of the Lord.] Which the sons of that wicked woman Athaliah, perhaps her bastards, had broken up, and bestowed all the dedicated things of the house of the Lord upon Balaam. {2Ch_24:7} So that there was but need of officers, or offices, to set things in order again.
