Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Kings 12:20

20 And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo , which goeth down to Silla .

Of which see 2 Chron. 24. 25.

Either, in that strong and famous place in Ierusalem called Millo: of which see 2 Sam. 5. 9. 1 King. 9. 15, 24. and 11. 27. into which he possibly retired for his security, being afraid even of his own Subjects and Servants. Or, in some other place called by the same name, for some resemblance it had with it.

i. e. Which standeth upon the descent to Silla, or upon that descending causeway which leadeth from Millo to the Kings House. Some refer this to Ioash, and render the place thus, They slew him at or near the house of Millo, descending, or as he was going down to Silla, to escape their hands.
