a captain of his, conspired against him
on 2 Kings 15:25-26
Pekah is his own king's officer, and he strikes inside the palace itself with fifty Gileadite men and two named accomplices, Argob and Arieh, the kind of detail Kings usually omits from these short obituaries. The Gileadite backing points east of Jordan, toward the territory Tiglath-pileser will strip away first in Pekah's own reign at verse 29, so the men who put him on the throne are the men whose land he later loses. The closing formula ends Pekahiah in one line, after giving his murder more words than his whole two-year reign otherwise earns.

And the rest of the acts of Pekahiah,.... The same form of expression is used as before, 2Ki 15:21, of all the kings.
