John Gill's Exposition of the Whole Bible

And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him,.... When in his drunken fit: and this was

in the twenty seventh year of Asa; when Elah had not reigned two full years:

and reigned in his stead; that is, Zimri; his reign was short indeed, but seven days, 1 Kings 16:15.

John Trapp Complete Commentary

1 Kings 16:10 And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his stead.

Ver. 10. And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him.] Even while he was drunk, and dreamt not of death. So Amnon, so Belshazzar, so not a few in all ages. And yet men will not be warned of this noonday devil, Drunkenness.
