2 Kings 10:16

All Remaining Relatives Of Ahab Are Killed

¹⁵ When Jehu went on from there, he met Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him. He greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart is with yours?” Jehonadab answered, “It is.” Jehu said “If it is, give me your hand.” He gave him his hand, and Jehu pulled him up into the chariot. ¹⁶ And he said, “Come with me and see my zeal for the Lord.” So he had Jehonadab in his chariot. ¹⁷ When Jehu came to Samaria, he killed everyone who remained of Ahab’s family in Samaria, until he had destroyed all of them, in accordance with the word of the Lord which He spoke to Elijah.
