2 Kings 9:33 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 9:33

And he said, throw her down
Out of the window upon the ground:

so they threw her down;
took her up, and cast her headlong, as they were bid:

and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall;
of the palace where she was:

and on the horses;
which drew the chariot of Jehu:

and he trod her underfoot;
with his horses; according to Kimchi, her sentence, and so her death, was stoning, as a retaliation of Naboth; for stoning was done two ways, both by casting down persons on stones, and by casting stones upon them, (See Gill on Acts 7:58).

2 Kings 9:33 In-Context

31 When Jehu entered the city gate, Jezebel said, "Have you come in peace, you Zimri, you who killed your master?"
32 Jehu looked up at the window and said, "Who is on my side? Who?" Two or three servants looked out the window at Jehu.
33 He said to them, "Throw her down." So they threw Jezebel down, and the horses ran over her. Some of her blood splashed on the wall and on the horses.
34 Jehu went into the house and ate and drank. Then he said, "Now see about this cursed woman. Bury her, because she is a king's daughter."
35 The men went to bury Jezebel, but they could not find her. They found only her skull, feet, and the palms of her hands.
