列王纪下 9:32 CUNPSS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 2 Kings 9:1-37

2 Kings 9:0 1. And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box [phial] of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead: 2. And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in [ into Jehu's house] and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him [literally, cause him to enter. The object was secresy] to an inner chamber [Heb., chamber in a chamber]. 3. Then... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 2 Kings 9:30-37

The character of Jezebel is one of the most awful we meet with in history among women. So much so, that a false prophetess in the revelations, and probably by way of pointing out more emphatically her infamy, is called after her, Jezebel. And when, in the same book, the final destruction of idolators, under the type of the great whore of Babylon and the mother of harlots, is spoken of in allusion to the same horrible crimes as Jezebel excelled in, it may serve to teach in some measure how very... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:32

This. "Who dares address me with such provoking language?" Hebrew, "Who with me, who?" will punish the wretch? The eunuchs, who had hitherto waited upon Jezabel, immediately shewed their readiness to take part with her enemy: so little dependence can be placed on servants in the hour of adversity, when they have long been witnesses of their masters' crimes. --- Hoofs. Hebrew, "and the horses, and he trod her under foot." (Haydock) --- Jehu shewed the example. (Menochius) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 9:30-37

30-37 Instead of hiding herself, as one afraid of Divine vengeance, Jezebel mocked at fear. See how a heart, hardened against God, will brave it out to the last. There is not a surer presage of ruin, than an unhumbled heart under humbling providences. Let those look at Jezebel's conduct and fate, who use arts to seduce others to commit wickedness, and to draw them aside from the ways of truth and righteousness. Jehu called for aid against Jezebel. When reformation-work is on foot, it is time to... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - 2 Kings 9:27-37

Death of Ahaziah and Jezebel v. 27. But when Ahaziah, the king of Judah, saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house, some structure in or near the palace grounds. And Jehu followed after him and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam, some miles to the west. And he fled to Megiddo and died there, on the slope of Mount Carmel. It seems, from 2 Chronicles 22:9, that Ahaziah had first succeeded in reaching Samaria, but, having been... read more

B.—Jehu’s Elevation to the Throne of Israel2 Kings 9:1-37. [2 Chronicles 22:7-9.]1And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets [prophet-disciples], and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box [vial]1 of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead: 2And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry [lead] him to an inner chamber; 3Then take the box [vial]... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 2 Kings 9:27-37

“The Word of the Lord by Elijah” 2 Kings 9:27-37 Let us read again 1 Kings 21:23 . How those words came back to the two men, who had heard them from the lips of God’s servant years before! God’s mills grind slowly, but to powder. In a deep sense Ahab’s blood was licked by dogs, as it flowed from the gaping wounds of his son. As a man sows he reaps, and when his children follow his steps, they too reap. But Ezekiel makes it perfectly clear that a godly son may break the entail of his father’s... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 2 Kings 9:1-37

The hour had come to carry out the sentence of God on the house of Ahab. The prophet sent one of the sons of the prophets to anoint Jehu. This Jehu, as his history reveals, was a fitting instrument for swift and relentless judgment. He was a furious driver, which was symbolic of his character. He halted at nothing, but swept like a whirlwind from point to point until the things he desired were accomplished. This is startlingly manifest in this chapter. On tde way, having been anointed... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 9:30-37

YHWH’s Judgment On Jezebel (2 Kings 9:30-37 ). The fact that YHWH carried out his judgment on Jehoram and Ahaziah, and now on Jezebel, through Jehu, does not mean that YHWH would approve wholly of all Jehu’s methods, and later Jehu is castigated for his excesses (see Hosea 1:4). But he is commended for destroying the house of Ahab (2 Kings 10:30). When God calls men into His service and works through them He does not control all their actions, and they may do things of which He disapproves,... read more

Arthur Peake

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 9:1-37

2 Kings 9:1 to 2 Kings 10:31 . The Revolution and Overthrow of the Baal Worship.— This spirited narrative is probably derived from the same source as 1 Kings 20, 22; and, if we strike out the short Deuteronomic portion ( 2 Kings 9:7-2 Samuel :), we cannot fail to notice the detachment of the writer, who neither condemns nor approves, but merely relates the tragedy. Hosea ( Hosea 1:4), a little more than a century later, evidently condemns the whole transaction, and traces the fall of Jehu’ s... read more
