10:15 All Ahab’s other relatives are killed
15 Then continuing on from there, Yehu found Rekav’s son Yonadav coming to meet him. Yehu greeted him and asked, “Are you wanting to do what is right just like I am?” IS THAT WHAT HE WAS REALLY ASKING???
“Yes, I am.” Yonadav replied.
“Great,” Yehu said. “Give me your hand,” and he gave him his hand, and Yehu pulled him up to join him into the chariot, 16 telling him, “Come with me and see my zeal for Yahweh.” So they rode together in the chariot. 17 When they got to Shomron, Yehu killed the remainder of Ahab’s family who were there, until they were finally exterminated, just as Yahweh had said via Eliyyah.
18 Then Yehu assembled all the people and told them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Yehu will serve him a lot. 19 So now, call all the prophets of Baal to come here—all his servants and all his priests. Don’t let anyway stay away because I’m going to make a large sacrifice to Baal. Anyone who’s absent will be executed.” However Yehu was being cunning in order to destroy Baal’s followers. 20 Yehu ordered, “Announce a special holiday to assemble and worship Baal,” and so they did. 21 On that day, Yehu brought in all the people, and all the servants of the Baal came leaving no one out. They entered the temple of the Baal and it was packed full. 22 He told the wardrobe supervisor, “Bring out uniforms for all the servants of the Baal,” so he brought robes out for them. 23 Then Yehu and Rekav’s son Yonadab entered the temple of the Baal and instructed the servants of the Baal, “Make sure that it’s only the servants of Baal in here—we don’t want any servants of Yahweh.” 24 so they entered to make sacrifices and burnt offerings.
Meanwhile, Yehu had stationed eighty men outside, and had told them, “Don’t let any of the ones I send you escape, or it will be your life in place of theirs.”
25 Then when he finished making the burnt offering in the outer area, Yehu told the guards and officers, “Come in now and strike them down. Don’t let any of them get out.” So they attacked them with swords, and the guards and officers threw the bodies over the fence. Then they went inside the temple, 26 and pulled the sacred posts outside and burnt them. 27 They broke down the pillar of the Baal, and they broke down the temple. Since then it’s been used as an out-house.
28 That’s how Yehu put an end to Baal worship in Israel. 29 There was only one of the things with which Nebat’s son Yarave’am had caused Israel to sin that Yehu didn’t destroy: the golden calves at Beyt-El and Dan. 30 Then Yahweh told Yehu, “Because you did good by following my principles and doing what I’ve said is right, including what you did to Ahab’s family, you’ll have four generations sitting on Israel’s throne.” 31 But Yehu didn’t take care follow the instructions of Israel’s God Yahweh whole-heartedly—he didn’t reject all of Yarave’am’s evil customs which had caused Israel to sin.
