SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:20

Y todo el pueblo de la tierra hizo alegrías, y la ciudad estuvo en reposo, habiendo sido Atalía muerta a cuchillo junto a la casa del rey.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 11:20

Verse 20. The people-rejoiced] They were
glad to get rid of the tyranny of Athaliah.

And the city was in quiet] She had no partisans to rise up and disturb the king's reign.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20. And all the people of the land rejoiced , etc.] That one of the house of David was set upon the throne, which they might fear was extinct, as it very near was; the lamp of David was almost quenched, only this single life left, from whom a line of kings proceeded, and the King Messiah; the promise of God cannot fail (see <19D211> Psalm 132:11,17), this occasioned great joy: and the city was quiet : was very easy at, yea, pleased with, the dethroning and death of Athaliah; there was no tumult on account thereof, nor such disturbances as she occasioned in her life: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king’s house ; as related in ( 2 Kings 11:16) where she was buried, or what became of her carcass, is not said; some have thought she was cast into the brook Kidron, because Josephus says Jehoiada ordered her to be had into that valley, and there slain.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 17-21 - King and people would
cleave most firmly to each other, when both ha joined themselves to the Lord. It is well with a people, when all the changes that pass over them help to revive, strengthen, and advance the interests of religion among them. Covenants are of use, both to remin us of, and bind us to, the duties already binding on us. The immediately abolished idolatry; and, pursuant to the covenant with on another, they expressed mutual readiness to help each other. The people rejoiced, and Jerusalem was quiet. The way for people to be joyful an at peace, is to engage fully in the service of God; for the voice of joy and thanksgiving is in the dwellings of the righteous, but there is no peace for the wicked __________________________________________________________________
