דברי הימים ב, פרק ל״ג, פסוק כ״ד

A sudden and violent betrayal took place within the most private walls of the home. An internal uprising occurred when the very servants of the household turned against their master. This was not a random act of violence, but a calculated and deliberate rebellion [מצודת ציון]. The fatal blow was struck privately, as the servants rose up and assassinated him right inside his own house.
