Contextual Overview
16 Joram was resting in Jezreel, so Jehu got in his chariot and drove to Jezreel. King Ahaziah of Judah had also come to Jezreel to see Joram. 17 A guard was standing on the tower in Jezreel. He saw Jehu's large group coming. He said, "I see a large group of people!" Joram said, "Send someone on a horse to meet them. Tell this messenger to ask if they come in peace." 18 So the messenger rode on a horse to meet Jehu. The messenger said, "King Joram says, ‘Do you come in peace?'" Jehu said, "You have nothing to do with peace. Come and follow me." The guard told Joram, "The messenger went to the group, but he has not come back yet." 19 Then Joram sent out a second messenger on a horse. This man came to Jehu's group and said, "King Joram says, ‘Peace.'" Jehu answered, "You have nothing to do with peace. Come and follow me." 20 The guard told Joram, "The second messenger went to the group, but he has not come back yet. There is a man driving his chariot like a mad man. He is driving like Jehu son of Nimshi." 21 Joram said, "Get me my chariot!" So the servant got Joram's chariot. Both King Joram of Israel and King Ahaziah of Judah got their chariots and drove out to meet Jehu. They met him at the property of Naboth from Jezreel. 22 Joram saw Jehu and asked, "Do you come in peace, Jehu?" Jehu answered, "There is no peace as long as your mother Jezebel does many acts of prostitution and witchcraft." 23 Joram turned the horses to run away. He said to Ahaziah, "It is a trick, Ahaziah!" 24 But Jehu grabbed his bow and shot Joram in the middle of his back, through the heart. Joram fell dead in his chariot. 25 Jehu said to his chariot driver Bidkar, "Take Joram's body up and throw it into the field of Naboth from Jezreel. Remember when you and I rode together with Joram's father Ahab, the Lord said this would happen to him.
