Albert Barnes' Bible Commentary

2 Kings 14:27

And the Lord said not - Though the Israelites were brought thus low, yet the fiat did not as yet go forth for their destruction. God did not send a prophet to say that He would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven; but on the contrary sent two to announce that they should be delivered from their present enemies, and obtain triumphs over them (see 2 Kings 14:25; 2 Kings 13:17).

That he would blot out ... - This is a Mosaic phrase, found only here and in Deuteronomy 2 Kings 9:14; 29:20.
