SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:12
Y ellos dijeron: Mentira; decláranoslo ahora. Y él dijo: Así y así me habló, diciendo: Así dijo el SEÑOR: Yo te he ungido por rey sobre Israel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:12
Verse 12. They said, It is false] Or, as the Chaldee has it, Thou liest. Or, perhaps, it might be thus understood, "We know he has said nothing but folly and lies, nevertheless, let us hear what he has said."
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 12. And they said, [it is] false, tell us now , etc.] They did not believe he spoke truth, but concealed from them the real matter; which they concluded to be of some importance, by the hastiness of the messenger, the privacy between them, the countenance of Jehu, which discovered thoughtfulness and concern, and the trifling answer he sought to put them off with; all which increased their curiosity, and made them urgent and importunate to know the truth of the matter: and he said, thus and thus spake he to me ; such and such words as above: and particularly saying, thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee king over Israel ; and no doubt told them that he poured oil on his head, and anointed him, and he might show them the oil.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-15 - Those who faithfully deliver the Lord's message to sinners, have in all ages been treated as madmen. Their judgment, speech, and conduct ar contrary to those of other men; they endure much in pursuit of objects and are influenced by motives, into which the others cannot enter. But above all, the charge is brought by the worldly and ungodly of all sorts, who are mad indeed; while the principles and practice of the devoted servants of God, prove to be wise and reasonable. Some faith in the word of God, seems to have animated Jehu to this undertaking.
