Why did they not burn for him like for other kings?

'Rashi': This was from Hashem, who did not desire his honor. There was a need to burn [his Kelim, lest they infect people - PF], for he had severe illnesses and his flesh rotted. Even so, Hashem caused that they did not, for He did not desire his honor. Also, he was not buried in the royal burial site.
