பற்றி · About

Nimshi was the grandfather of Jehu, who became king of Israel (2Ki.9.2). Jehu was often referred to as "the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi" (2Ki.9.14, 20; 2Ch.22.7). Nimshi's son Jehoshaphat was the father of Jehu. The prophet Elijah was instructed by God to anoint Jehu as king of Israel (1Ki.19.16), a task that was later carried out by Elisha's servant (2Ki.9.1-10). Jehu went on to overthrow the dynasty of Ahab and Jezebel, fulfilling the prophecies against them.
