The narrative woke another chord of memory which had hitherto slept. And he said, This is the word of the Lord, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite. The prophecy referred to is doubtless that recorded in 1 Kings 21:23. It is, however, here expanded, either because Jehu's recollection was not exact, or because the record in 1 Kings is abbreviated. The great point of the prophecy is common to both records, viz. that the dogs should eat Jezebel at Jezreel, on the scene of her iniquities. Saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel. It is not quite clear what is meant by the portion (חֵלָק) of Jezreel. Probably there is no allusion to the "portion" (חֶלְקָה) of Naboth (vers. 25, 26). Rather the same is meant as by חֵל in 1 Kings 21:23, viz. the cultivated space or "portion" of land outside the wall of the town (see the comment on that passage).Jump to Previous Declare Devour Dogs Eat Elijah Eli'jah Flesh Ground Heritage Jehu Jezebel Jez'ebel Jezebel's Jezreel Plot Portion Property Servant Territory Tishbite Turn Wherefore WordJump to Next Declare Devour Dogs Eat Elijah Eli'jah Flesh Ground Heritage Jehu Jezebel Jez'ebel Jezebel's Jezreel Plot Portion Property Servant Territory Tishbite Turn Wherefore WordLinks 2 Kings 9:36 NIV2 Kings 9:36 NLT 2 Kings 9:36 ESV 2 Kings 9:36 NASB 2 Kings 9:36 KJV 2 Kings 9:36 Bible Apps 2 Kings 9:36 Biblia Paralela 2 Kings 9:36 Chinese Bible 2 Kings 9:36 French Bible 2 Kings 9:36 German Bible Alphabetical: and at back by devour dogs eat Elijah flesh ground he him his In is Jehu Jezebel Jezebel's Jezreel LORD of On plot property returned said saying servant shall spoke that the Therefore They This through Tishbite told went which who will word OT History: 2 Kings 9:36 Therefore they came back and told him (2Ki iiKi ii ki 2 kg 2kg) Christian Bible Study Resources, Dictionary, Concordance and Search Tools |
