2 Chronicles 22:7

And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram ,.... Of his appointing; it was according to his purpose and decree, and was brought about by his overruling Providence, ordering the occasion and manner of it very justly for his sins:

for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi ; see 2 Kings 9:21 ,

whom the Lord had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab ; raised up to be king of Israel for that purpose, 2 Kings 9:6 , the Targum is,"whom Elijah anointed by the command of the Word of the Lord;'but it was not Elijah, but a prophet by the order of Elisha, that anointed him, 2 Kings 9:1 , and this being done by direction of the Lord, is ascribed to him.
