2 Mga Hari 9:35

35 Ug sila nangadto aron sa paglubong kaniya; apan wala nay nakaplagan kaniya kondili ang bagol-bagol, ug ang mga tiil, ug ang mga palad sa iyang mga kamot.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they went to bury her,.... The servants of Jehu, according to his orders and instructions;

but they found no more of her than the scull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands; the flesh, and even all the rest of her bones, being devoured by dogs, so that there was scarce anything of her to be buried, as in 2 Kings 9:10, something similar to this happened to Ascletarion, a mathematician, as related by Suetonius o.

o In Vita Domitian. c. 15.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 35. The skull - the feet, and the palms of her hands. — The dogs did not eat those parts, say Jarchi and Kimchi, because in her festal dances she danced like a dog, on her hands and feet, wantonly moving her head. What other meaning these rabbins had, I do not inquire. She was, no doubt, guilty of the foulest actions, and was almost too bad to be belied.

How literally was the prediction delivered in the preceding book, (1 Kings 21:23, The dogs shall eat Jezebel, by the wall of Jezreel,) fulfilled! And how dearly did she and her husband Ahab pay for the murder of innocent Naboth!
