شرح للأطفال
Imagine you have a friend who always tells lies and doesn't like to play fair. If you keep helping them and being nice to them, even though they're not a good friend, you might get in trouble. Jehu is telling the king he shouldn't be friends with people who don't like God.
السياق التاريخي
2 Chronicles was likely written after the exile, around 538-323 BC. It's part of the post-exilic literature written for the returned exiles to remind them of their history and the importance of following God's laws. The audience was the community of Judah, who needed guidance on how to rebuild their faith and society.
