Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

And they came: Joel 3:2, Joel 3:11-14, Revelation 16:16

the house of Baal: 1 Kings 16:32

full from one end to another: or, so full that they stood mouth to mouth, Judges 16:27

Reciprocal: 2 Kings 10:19 - all his servants

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Jehu sent through all Israel,.... Persons to proclaim this solemn assembly:

and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not; some no doubt came cheerfully, having no suspicion of him, and the rather, as he might have been a worshipper of Baal in the times of Ahab; and as for what he had done to Baal's priests, they might consider that only as they were in connection with Ahab's family, whom to destroy was his political interest; and they were glad at heart their new king was so affected to Baal, and fond to see such a grand solemnity as they expected this to be; and others that might be suspicious of him, yet as they must die if they did not appear, and there was a possibility they might live, chose therefore to come:

and they came into the house of Baal; the temple which Ahab had built for him in Samaria, 1 Kings 16:32

and the house of Baal was full from one end to the other; not only the body of the temple, but all the outward court, every mouth, or corner, as in the original text: and this single house might be sufficient for all in the land; since the number of them might be greatly lessened by the ministry of Elijah and Elisha, as well as by the destruction the former made of the prophets of Baal; and by the schools of the prophets set up in various places, from whence prophets were sent out to instruct the people; and by Joram's putting away the image of Baal, which no doubt lessened the number of his worshippers.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In order to understand how such numbers could find room, we must remember that the ancient temples had vast courts around them, which could contain many thousands.
