Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they buried him in the city of David among the kings,.... In honour to him, he having been the preserver of the king, and of the kingdom, and being by marriage a relation of the present king, uncle to him:
because he had done good in Israel; in that part of it which belonged to the kingdom of the house of David:
both towards God, and towards his house; both for the restoring the pure worship of God, and the repairs of the temple.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They buried him in the city of David among the kings - This unparalleled honor, due in part to the respect felt for Jehoiada’s religious character, was probably, also, in part attributable to his connection with the royal family through his wife 2 Chronicles 22:11, and to the fact that, for 10 or 12 years, he had practically held the kingly office.
Toward his house - “i. e. toward God’s house,” the temple.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 24:16. They buried him - among the kings — He had, in fact, been king in Judah; for Joash, who appears to have been a weak man, was always under his tutelage. Jehoiada governed the state in the name of the king; and his being buried among the kings is a proof of the high estimation in which he was held among the people.
