Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 2 Kings 9:2-3

2 Kings 9:2-3. Make him arise up from among his brethren From the other officers of the army, 2 Kings 9:5. Carry him to an inner chamber This he orders, partly that the work might not be hindered, and partly for the security of the young prophet’s own person. And say, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed &c. This was not the whole message he was to deliver: but the rest of it is particularly declared 2 Kings 9:7-10, and is to be understood here. “According to the Jews, none of the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:1-10

8:16-12:21 REMOVAL OF JEZEBEL’S BAALISMJezebel’s Baalism spreads to Judah (8:16-9:10)The writer now returns to his historical account of the kings of Judah and Israel. Jehoshaphat’s son Jehoram, who was married to Athaliah the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel, became king of Judah after his father’s death. Through Athaliah, Jezebel’s Baalism spread to Judah. Jehoram made sure that no one challenged his right to do as he pleased by killing all likely rivals. Because of this and his support for... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 2 Kings 9:3

2 Kings 9:3. I have anointed thee king over Israel— According to the Jews, none of the kings of Israel were anointed but those of the house of David, and these only when there was a question about their succession; as Solomon, they say, needed not to have been anointed, had it not been for the faction of Adonijah. But in the case of Jehu, in whom the succession of the kingdom of Israel was to be translated out of the right line of the family of Ahab, into another family which had no right to... read more

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

(3) Then.—And (both times).Thus saith the Lord . . . over Israel.—Only the chief part of the message to Jehu is here given, to avoid publicity. (See infra, 2 Kings 9:6-9.)Over Israel.—Literally, unto Israel, both here and in 2 Kings 9:12. But a great number of MSS., and all the versions in both places, read over Israel.Tarry not.—So as to avoid all questioning, and to give greater force to the act. 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
