Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, etc.] These are the words of the Lord to Elijah the day after Naboth was put to death: and the blood of his sons, said the Lord; who were put to death with him, that there might be no heirs to the estate: and I will requite thee in this place: take vengeance here, as he now did on his son: now therefore take [and] cast him into the plat [of ground], according to the word of the Lord; whereby it would be fulfilled, (see <112119>1 Kings 21:19), more is here recited than there, which Jehu well remembered.
