Ahaziah sent another chief with 50 men. The second chief was even more reckless than the first. For one thing, he learned nothing from the deaths of those 51 men, though their ashes may still have littered the hillside. For another, not only did he repeat his predecessor’s contemptuous order to Elijah to “come down” but he added the word “quickly”! How foolish! So he and his men lost their lives in the same way as the first group did.
