2 Reyes 9:17 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 9:17

And there stood a watchman on the tower of Jezreel
Who could see afar off when an enemy was coming, and his business was to give notice of it; and especially he was now on his watch tower, because the king was there, and this was necessary for his safety: and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a
company;
a troop of soldiers, though he did not know who they were, and to whom they belonged, whether they were Syrians or Israelites; which was reported to the king: and Joram said, take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him
say, is it peace?
he might fear some ill had befallen his army at Ramothgilead, and the Syrians had got the advantage of them; or they had made an irruption into his country, and were coming to attack him at Jezreel; or there was an insurrection among his own people.

18 Fue, pues, el de a caballo a reconocerlos, y dijo: El rey dice asĂ­: ÂżHay paz? Y JehĂș le dijo: ÂżQuĂ© tienes tĂș que ver con la paz? VuĂ©lvete tras mĂ­. El atalaya dio luego aviso, diciendo: El mensajero llegĂł hasta ellos, y no vuelve
