Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Kings 9:1-13

God’s preparation of Jehu 9:1-13God had told Elijah that he would anoint Jehu (1 Kings 19:16). [Note: For more information on anointing with oil (2 Kings 9:3; 2 Kings 9:6), see my note on 1 Samuel 16:13.] He did this through his successor Elisha who accomplished it by using one of his protégés (2 Kings 9:1). Jehu would wipe out Omri’s dynasty in Israel (2 Kings 9:7-10). Jehu’s father was a different Jehoshaphat from Judah’s king of the same name (2 Kings 9:2). Elijah had prophesied the end of... read more

The Character of Jezebel 2 Kings 9:30 Some there are who, having an imperfect knowledge of the true position of woman among the Hebrews, or, placing too much reliance on modern Oriental analogies, have represented her station as that of a low and degraded character. In doing this, they have committed an error, of which they could never have been guilty had they studied that beautiful description of a Hebrew woman given at the end of the book of Proverbs, where the value of a virtuous and... read more

THE REVOLT OF JEHU2 Kings 9:1-37B.C. 842"Te semper anteit saeva Necessitas, Clavos trabales et cuneos manu, Gestans ahena."- HORAT., "Od.," I 35:17A LONG period had elapsed since Elijah had received the triple commission which was to mark the close of his career.

8. The Anointing of Jehu CHAPTER 9:1-10 1. The commission (2 Kings 9:1-3 ) 2. Jehu anointed (2 Kings 9:4-10 ) The hour of judgment for the house of Ahab has come. The instrument for it, mentioned long ago to Elijah (1 Kings 19:16-17 ), appears now upon the scene. The army of Joram, King of Israel, besieged Ramoth-gilead and Jehu was the captain of the forces. Joram was recovering from his wounds in Jezreel. Then Elisha called one of the sons of the prophets. Handing him a box of oil he... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 9:1-37

JEHU ANOINTED KING OF ISRAEL (vv.1-13) Elijah had been told to anoint Jehu king of Israel (1 Kings 19:16), but had not done it. Now later Elisha commissions one of the sons of the prophets to anoint Jehu, telling him he would find him at Ramoth Gilead (v.1). Explicit directions were given him to anoint Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, taking him to an inner room to do this. Jehu was an officer in the army of Joram, son of Ahab. What was the reason for a secret anointing... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:1-37

THE OVER - ZEALOUS JEHU PRELIMINARY EVENTS (2 Kings 8:25-29 ) The last lesson should have spoken of the chronological difficulties in the history of the kings of this period. (Compare especially 8:16 with 1:17.) But all our space will permit is to say that all such difficulties are satisfactorily solved, without doing violence to the text, in “The Romance of Chronology,” by Anstey; who in turn quotes Dr. John Lightfoot, of the seventeenth Century, Beecher’s Dated Events of the Old... read more
