2 Kings 9:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 9:10

And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel
Or in the field of Jezreel; the Targum is, the inheritance of Jezreel; this is also threatened, ( 1 Kings 21:23 ) and [there shall be] none to bury her;
or nothing of her to bury, as Kimchi, all being eaten up but her skull, feet, and the palms of her hands, see ( 2 Kings 9:35 ) and he opened the door, and fled;
that is, the young man of the sons of the prophets, as soon as he had said the above words, as he was ordered, lest he should be taken up for a traitor.
