Then `Atalyah tore her clothes, and cried, Treason! treason! 15 Yehoiada the Kohen commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the host, and said to them, Have her forth between the ranks; and him who follows her kill with the sword.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they laid hands on her,.... Or rather,
"set a place for her'',
as the Targum; so Jarchi and Kimchi; made a space, opened a way for her to come out of the temple into their ranks, that she might be there taken and slain, and not in the temple:
and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king's house; either the high road in which the horses and carriages went to the palace, or the way to the king's stables near the palace: and there was she slain; they let her go so far, which was far enough from the temple, and then they slew her.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And they laid hands on her - Most modern critics render - âand they gave her space,â i. e., they cleared a way for her, and allowed her to walk out of the temple not only unharmed but untonched.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 11:16. By the way - which the horses came — They probably brought her out near the king's stables. It has been supposed, from Ezekiel 46:1-2, that the east gate of the inner court was that by which the king entered on the Sabbath day, whereas on all other days he entered by the south gate. And there was another gate, called the horse gate, in the wall of the city, (Jeremiah 31:40,) for the king's horses to go out at from the stables at Millo, which is therefore called, 2 Chronicles 23:15, the horse gate toward the king's house.
