2 Reis 9:11

11 Quando Jeú voltou para junto dos outros oficiais do rei, um deles lhe perguntou: “Está tudo bem? O que esse louco queria com você?”Jeú respondeu: “Vocês conhecem essa gente e sabem as coisas que eles dizem”.

2 Reis 9:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 9:11

Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord
The rest of the captains of the army, who served under Joram as he did: and one said unto him, is all well?
one of the captains, the greatest of them, as Kimchi; he inquired whether he brought any ill news, since he came and went in such haste: wherefore came this mad fellow to thee?
so profane men, especially the worshippers of Baal, as those captains might be, were wont to call the prophets of the Lord, because of their habit, their manner of living, and the gestures they sometimes used in prophesying, and especially because of the things they prophesied of; and even prophets were sometimes called so, because, in the time of their prophesying, they appeared as madmen F13, and in a frenzy: and he said unto them, ye know the man, and his communication;
you saw by his habit of what profession he is, and you may easily guess what he talked of, as such men usually do, about religion, and one whimsical thing or another, reproving men for their sins, and telling them what they ought to do; and such like things you may well imagine he has been talking of to me; you rightly call him a mad fellow, and you may well suppose his discourse was agreeably to his character, and not worth relating and hearing; this he said, to put them off inquiring any further.

2 Reis 9:11 In-Context

9 Tratarei a família de Acabe como tratei a de Jeroboão, filho de Nebate, e a de Baasa, filho de Aías.
10 E Jezabel será devorada por cães num terreno em Jezreel, e ninguém a sepultará’.” Então ele abriu a porta e saiu correndo.
11 Quando Jeú voltou para junto dos outros oficiais do rei, um deles lhe perguntou: “Está tudo bem? O que esse louco queria com você?”Jeú respondeu: “Vocês conhecem essa gente e sabem as coisas que eles dizem”.
12 Mas insistiram: “Não nos engane! Conte-nos o que ele disse”.Então Jeú contou: “Ele me disse o seguinte: ‘Assim diz o SENHOR: Eu o estou ungindo rei sobre Israel’.”
13 Imediatamente eles pegaram os seus mantos e os estenderam sobre os degraus diante dele. Em seguida tocaram a trombeta e gritaram: “Jeú é rei!”
