Albert Barnes Commentary 2 Kings 10:5

"And he that was over the household, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and they that brought up [the children], sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any man king: do thou that which is good in thine eyes." — 2 Kings 10:5 (ASV)

The officer who was in charge of the palace (1 Kings 4:6) and the governor of the city (1 Kings 22:26) seem to correspond to the “rulers” mentioned in 2 Kings 10:1.
