2 Kings 9:32 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 9:32

And he lifted up his face to the window
On hearing the above words;

and said, who is on my side, who?
and will assist in taking vengeance on this haughty, imperious, and abusive woman:

and there looked out to him two or three eunuchs;
who used to wait on her, as such did on women of quality, and attend them in their bedchambers; these, by their looks, signified they were ready to do any thing Jehu should direct them, Jezebel having been, perhaps, a very cruel mistress to them, and so was hated by them; and they might hope, by pleasing Jehu, to be continued at court in their office.

2 Kings 9:32 In-Context

30 When Jezebel heard that Jehu had arrived in Jezreel, she made herself up - put on eyeshadow and arranged her hair - and posed seductively at the window.
31 When Jehu came through the city gate, she called down, "So, how are things, 'Zimri,' you dashing king-killer?"
32 Jehu looked up at the window and called, "Is there anybody up there on my side?" Two or three palace eunuchs looked out.
33 He ordered, "Throw her down!" They threw her out the window. Her blood spattered the wall and the horses, and Jehu trampled her under his horse's hooves.
34 Then Jehu went inside and ate his lunch. During lunch he gave orders, "Take care of that damned woman; give her a decent burial - she is, after all, a king's daughter."
