Proclaim: Heb. Sanctify, 1 Kings 18:19, 1 Kings 18:20, 1 Kings 21:12, Joel 1:14
Reciprocal: Exodus 32:5 - made proclamation Leviticus 23:2 - proclaim Numbers 22:22 - God's 2 Kings 3:3 - he cleaved Joel 2:15 - sanctify Romans 11:4 - Baal
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jehu said, proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal,.... Such as with the Jews was an holy convocation, when they were forbidden and restrained from doing any work on that day; and such a day Jehu would have appointed and proclaimed for Baal, that the people might be at leisure to attend:
and they proclaimed it; according to his order, in Samaria.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A solemn assembly - Jehu applies to his proposed gathering the sacred name assigned in the Law to the chiefest festivals of Yahweh (see Leviticus 23:36; Numbers 29:35; Deuteronomy 16:8).
