SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:7
Y herirás la casa de Acab tu señor, para que yo vengue la sangre de mis siervos los profetas, y la sangre de todos los siervos del SEÑOR, de la mano de Jezabel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 9:7
Verse 7. Thou shalt smite the house of Ahab] For their most cruel murders they have forfeited their own lives, according to that immutable law, "HE that sheddeth man's blood by man shall his blood be shed." This and the two following verses contain the commission which Jehu received from the Lord against the bloody house of Ahab.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master , etc.] For Jehu was one of Ahab’s captains, as he was now one of his son’s, as appears from ( 2 Kings 9:25), but this was to be no objection with him to the destroying of his house, as being an act of high treason, since he had an order for it from the King of kings, and Lord of lords; which otherwise would have seemed unlawful and criminal, and what follows will sufficiently vindicate the justice of God in it: that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezebel ; who killed the prophets of the Lord, and caused to be put to death Naboth the servant of the Lord, and now their blood was to be avenged on her and her son Joram, and all her family.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-10 - In these and the like events, we must acknowledge the secret working of God, disposing men to fulfil his purposes respecting them. Jehu wa anointed king over Israel, by the Lord's special choice. The Lord stil had a remnant of his people, and would yet preserve his worship amon them. Of this Jehu was reminded. He was commanded to destroy the hous of Ahab, and, as far as he acted in obedience to God, and upon righ principles, he needed not to regard reproach or opposition. The murde of God's prophets is strongly noticed. Jezebel persisted in idolatr and enmity to Jehovah and his servants, and her iniquity was now full.
