and [there shall be] none to bury her; or nothing of her to bury, as Kimchi, all being eaten up but her skull, feet, and the palms of her hands, see 2 Kings 9:35
and he opened the door, and fled; that is, the young man of the sons of the prophets, as soon as he had said the above words, as he was ordered, lest he should be taken up for a traitor.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 9:10. The dogs shall eat Jezebel — How most minutely was this prophecy fulfilled! See 2 Kings 9:33, &c.
