Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength,.... To give the arrow all the force he could;
and smote Jehoram between his arms; that is, between his shoulders, his back being turned to him, and the chariot an open one:
and the arrow went out at his heart: quite through him:
and he sunk down in his chariot; and died immediately.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Jehu drew a bow ... - literally, as in the margin, i. e., “Jehu took a bow in his hand.” The arrow struck Jehoram’s back, between his two shoulders, as he fled.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 9:24. Drew a bow with his full strength — The marginal reading is correct: He filled his hand with a bow. That is, "He immediately took up his bow, set his arrow, and let fly." This is the only meaning of the passage.
Between his arms — That is, between his shoulders; for he was now turned, and was flying from Jehu.
