Jehu
Jehu (; , meaning "Jehovah is He"; (ラテン語:Iehu)) was the tenth king of Israel since Jeroboam I, noted for exterminating the house of Ahab at the instruction of Yahweh.〔(Meaning of Jehu - History and Origin ) – Meaning of "Jehu", Hebrew name, Meaning-of-Names.com.〕 He was the son of Jehoshaphat,〔Jehu's father was not the roughly contemporaneous King Jehoshaphat of Judah, whose own father was King Asa of Judah. "Generally Jehu is described as the son only of Nimshi, possibly because Nimshi was more prominent or to avoid confusing him with the King of Judah (''R’Wolf'')". Scherman, Nosson, ''ed.'', "I–II Kings", ''The Prophets'', 297, 2006. See ()〕 and grandson of Nimshi.
William F. Albright has dated his reign to 842–815 BC, while E. R. Thiele offers the dates 841–814 BC.〔Edwin Thiele, ''The Mysterious Numbers of the Hebrew Kings'', (1st ed.; New York: Macmillan, 1951; 2d ed.; Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1965; 3rd ed.; Grand Rapids: Zondervan/Kregel, 1983).

==Proclamation as king==
The reign of Jehu's predecessor, Jehoram, was marked by the Battle of Ramoth-Gilead against the army of the Arameans. Jehoram was wounded and returned to Jezreel to recover. He was attended by Ahaziah, king of Judah, who was also his nephew. The writer of the Book of Kings tells that when the captains of the Israelite army were assembled away from the king's eyes, the prophet Elisha sent one of his students to the gathering. Elisha's student led Jehu away from the others, anointed him king in an inner chamber, and then departed (). Jehu's companions asked where he had been. When told, they enthusiastically blew their trumpets and proclaimed him their king.〔(Driscoll, James F. "Jehu." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 8.
