Verse 21

And Joram said, make ready ,.... The chariot, put to the horses; bind them, as the word signifies, to the chariot:

and his chariot was made ready ; by his servants immediately:

and Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot ; not both in the same chariot, but each in his own, for the sake of greater magnificence:

and they went out against Jehu ; not in an hostile manner, for they had no notion of him as an enemy; though it is much they had no suspicion of him by his detaining the messengers; but Joram perhaps thought he was desirous of delivering his message himself; and in honour to him, and also being eager to know what it was, went out to meet him:

and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite ; which had been his, and where, or near it, he was stoned, and his blood shed; a very inauspicious place to meet him in.
