Melachim Alef 21:21 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 21:21

Behold, I will bring evil upon thee
Upon his own person, by cutting him off with a violent death, though his family was so numerous, having no less than seventy sons:

and will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him
that is shut up and left Israel; (See Gill on 1 Kings 14:10).
