1 Reyes 16:9 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 16:9

And his servant Zimri, captain of half his chariots
His military chariots; there were two captains of them, and this was one of them; so the Targum,

``one of the two masters or captains of the chariots:''

conspired against him, as he was in Tirzah drinking himself drunk in
the house of Arza, steward of his house in Tirzah;
who had the charge of his wine and other liquors, to which he was addicted beyond measure; and this was a fit opportunity for Zimri to fall upon him, and slay him, when he was drunk, and off his guard, and his army at the same time was besieging Gibbethon, ( 1 Kings 16:15 ) so that there was a very great likeness in what befell the family of Baasha, to that of the family of Jeroboam; for as the son of the one, and of the other, reigned but two years, so they were both slain by their servants, and both at a time when Gibbethon was besieged; the Targum takes this Arza to be the temple of an idol so called, near the royal palace.

1 Reyes 16:9 In-Context

7 Y as铆 mismo hab铆a sido la palabra del SE脩OR por Jeh煤, hijo de Hanani, profeta sobre Baasa y sobre su casa, y sobre todo lo malo que hizo a los ojos del SE脩OR, provoc谩ndole a ira con las obras de sus manos, para que fuese hecha como la casa de Jeroboam; y sobre la que lo hab铆a herido.
8 En el a帽o veintis茅is de Asa rey de Jud谩, comenz贸 a reinar Ela hijo de Baasa sobre Israel en Tirsa; y rein贸 dos a帽os.
9 E hizo conjuraci贸n contra 茅l su siervo Zimri, pr铆ncipe sobre la mitad de los carros. Y estando 茅l en Tirsa, bebiendo y embriagado en casa de Arsa su mayordomo en Tirsa,
10 vino Zimri, y lo hiri贸 y mat贸, en el a帽o veintisiete de Asa rey de Jud谩; y rein贸 en su lugar.
11 Y luego que lleg贸 a reinar y estuvo sentado en su trono, hiri贸 toda la casa de Baasa, sin dejar en ella meante a la pared, ni sus parientes ni amigos.
