It is evident from this, that the Israelites were in possession of the city of Ramoth, and were defending it against the attacks of the Syrians, so that שׁמר in 2 Kings 9:14 cannot be understood as relating to the siege of Ramoth. The Chethb לגּיד for להגּיד is not to be altered according to the Keri, as there are many examples to be found of syncope in cases of this kind (vid., Olshausen, Lehrb. d. Hebr. Spr. p. 140).

Now therefore take him up and throw him on the plot of ground, in accordance with the word of the LORD." 2 Chronicles 22:7 But it was ordained by God that the downfall of Ahaziah should come about through his going to visit Joram.
