2 Koningen 21:16

Ook heeft Manasse zeer veel onschuldig bloed vergoten, totdat hij er Jeruzalem boordevol van had gemaakt; behalve de andere zonden welke hij Juda heeft doen bedrijven, doende wat kwaad was in het oog des Heeren.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover, Manasseh shed innocent blood very much,.... Putting to death the prophets that reproved him and his people for their idolatries, and such who would not comply therewith; and it is commonly said, both by Jewish and Christian writers, that Isaiah was slain, and even sawn asunder by him, :-,

till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; a metaphor taken from filling a vessel brimful:

beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the Lord; the sin of idolatry he drew them into, and even obliged them to commit.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare Jeremiah 2:30; Hebrews 11:37; Isaiah 57:1-4. According to tradition, Isaiah was among the first to perish. More than a century afterward, the final judgment upon Jerusalem was felt to be in an special way the punishment of Manasseh’s bloody persecution of God’s people (marginal reference).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 21:16. Shed innocent blood very much — Like the deities he worshipped, he was fierce and cruel; an unprincipled, merciless tyrant: he slew innocent people and God's prophets.
