SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:31
Y cuando entraba Jehú por la puerta, ella dijo: ¿Sucedió bien a Zimri, que mató a su señor?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:31
Verse 31. Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?] Jarchi paraphrases this place thus: "If thou hast slain thy master, it is no new thing; for Zimri also slew Elah, the son of Baasha;" which words were rather intended to conciliate than to provoke. But the words are understood by most of the versions thus: Health to Zimri, the slayer of his master!
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 31. And as Jehu entered in at the gate , etc.] Either of the city of Jezreel, or of the king’s palace: she said, [had] Zimri peace, who slew his master ? Elah the son of Baasha king of Israel; no, he had not; he reigned but seven days, and, being besieged, burnt the king’s house over him, and died, ( 1 Kings 16:10,18), suggesting that the like would be his fate, who had slain his master Joram; or the words may be rendered, “O Zimri, the slayer of his master”; calling Jehu so, because of his likeness to Zimri.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 30-37 - Instead of hiding herself, as one afraid of Divine vengeance, Jezebe mocked at fear. See how a heart, hardened against God, will brave it out to the last. There is not a surer presage of ruin, than a unhumbled heart under humbling providences. Let those look at Jezebel' conduct and fate, who use arts to seduce others to commit wickedness and to draw them aside from the ways of truth and righteousness. Jeh called for aid against Jezebel. When reformation-work is on foot, it is time to ask, Who sides with it? Her attendants delivered her up. Thu she was put to death. See the end of pride and cruelty, and say, The Lord is righteous. When we pamper our bodies, let us think how vil they are; shortly they will be a feast for worms under ground, or beasts above ground. May we all flee from that wrath which is reveale from heaven, against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men __________________________________________________________________
