Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets,.... Who the Jews generally say k was Jonah the son of Amittai:

and said, gird up thy loins; his loose and long garments about his loins, for quicker dispatch in travelling:

and take this box of oil in thine hand; for an use after directed to:

and go to Ramothgilead; where Joram had left his army with his captains, to keep the city from the Syrians.

k Seder Olam Rabba, c. 18. p. 47.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Box - Rather, “flask,” or “vial” 1 Samuel 10:1. Oil and ointment were commonly kept in open-mouthed jars, vases, or bottles made of glass, alabaster, or earthen-ware. Many such vessels have been found both in Egypt and Assyria. The “oil” was the holy oil, compounded after the receipt given in Exodus Exodus 30:23-25.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER IX

Elisha sends one of the disciples of the prophets to

Ramoth-gilead, to anoint Jehu king of Israel, 1-3.

He acts according to his orders, and informs Jehu that he is

to cut off the whole house of Ahab, 4-10.

Jehu's captains proclaim him king, 11-14.

He goes again Jezreel; where he finds Joram and Ahaziah king

of Judah, who had come to visit him; he slays them both: the

former is thrown into the portion of Naboth; the latter,

having received a mortal wound, gives to Megiddo, and dies

there, and is carried to Jerusalem, and buried in the city

of David, 15-29.

He commands Jezebel to be thrown out of her window; and he

treads her under the feet of his horses; and the dogs eat

her, according to the word of the Lord, 30-37.

NOTES ON CHAP. IX

Verse 2 Kings 9:1. One of the children of the prophets — The Jews say that this was Jonah the prophet, the son of Amittai.

Gird up thy loins — What thou hast to do requires the utmost despatch.
