Barnes' Notes
A certain officer - literally, "a certain eunuch" (margin). Eunuchs were now in common use at the Samaritan court (compare II Kings 9:32). They are ascribed to the court of David in Chronicles I Chronicles 28:1; and we may conjecture that they were maintained by Solomon. But otherwise we do not find them in the kingdom of Judah until the time of Hezekiah Isaiah 56:3-4.
