SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:16
¶ Entonces Jehú cabalgó, y se fue a Jezreel, porque Joram estaba allí enfermo. También Ocozías rey de Judá había descendido allá a visitar a Joram.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:16
Verse 16. Jehu-went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there.] From the preceding verse we learn, that Joram had been wounded in his attack on Ramoth-gilead, and had gone to Jezreel to be cured; and neither he nor Ahaziah knew any thing of the conspiracy in Ramoth-gilead, because Jehu and his captains took care to prevent any person from leaving the city; so that the two kings at Jezreel knew nothing of what had taken place.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. So Jehu rode in a chariot , etc.] In great pomp and majesty as a king: and went to Jezreel : set forward on a march thither with his captains, and part of his army at least, from Ramothgilead; which, according to Bunting f111 , was twenty four miles: for Jordan lay there ; to be cured of his wounds, as before observed: and Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram ; (see 2 Kings 8:29).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-29 - Jehu was a man of eager spirit. The wisdom of God is seen in the choic of those employed in his work. But it is not for any man's reputatio to be known by his fury. He that has rule over his own spirit, is better than the mighty. Joram met Jehu in the portion of Naboth. The circumstances of events are sometimes ordered by Divine Providence to make the punishment answer to the sin, as face answers to face in glass. The way of sin can never be the way of peace, Isa 57:21. What peace can sinners have with God? No peace so long as sin is persiste in; but when it is repented of and forsaken, there is peace. Joram die as a criminal, under the sentence of the law. Ahaziah was joined with the house of Ahab. He was one of them; he had made himself so by sin It is dangerous to join evil-doers; we shall be entangled in guilt an misery by it.
