  • House of Jehu
rdfs:comment
  • The House of Jehu (884-772 BC according to Ussher, or 841-753 BC according to Thiele) was the dynasty inaugurated by the revolutionary general Jehu. It lasted for four generations past Jehu's death, the longest of any dynastic house in the Northern Kingdom. It was marred with continued false worship according to the artificial religious system of Jeroboam I, a military record varying form appalling defeat to stirring victory over Syrian invaders and raiders, and civil disorder that (according to Ussher) included a twelve-year interregnum and certainly (as Ussher and Thiele both agree) occasioned the abrupt end of this house by an act of murder.
