And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 15 of 2 Kings. Zechariah reigns over Israel for a very short period and is assassinated by Shallum. With him the dynasty of Jehu ends after four generations, fulfilling the word of the Lord concerning the duration of that house. The rapid transition illustrates the political instability of the northern kingdom. The narrator does not interpret Zechariah’s fall simply as the result of an individual conspiracy: he places it within an earlier prophetic word. The violent succession shows how the kingdom has become a place of coups and dynastic fragility.
