SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:16
Y le dijo: Ven conmigo, y verás mi celo por el SEÑOR. Lo pusieron, pues, en su carro.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 10:16
Verse 16. Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord.] O thou ostentatious and murderous hypocrite! Thou have zeal for Jehovah and his pure religion! Witness thy calves at Dan and Bethel, and the general profligacy of thy conduct. He who can call another to witness his zeal for religion, or his works of charity, has as much of both as serves his own turn.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. And he said, come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord of hosts , etc.] In destroying idolaters and idolatry, with an intent to do which he was going to Samaria; this seems to savour very much of vain glory, hypocrisy, and a pharisaical spirit: so they made him ride in his chariot ; the servants of Jehu by his order opened the chariot door, and assisted Jonadab in getting into it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-28 - Is thine heart right? This is a question we should often put to ourselves. I make a fair profession, have gained a reputation amon men, but, is my heart right? Am I sincere with God? Jehonadab owne Jehu in the work, both of revenge and of reformation. An upright hear approves itself to God, and seeks no more than his acceptance; but in we aim at the applause of men, we are upon a false foundation. Whethe Jehu looked any further we cannot judge. The law of God was express that idolaters were to be put to death. Thus idolatry was abolished for the present out of Israel. May we desire that it be rooted out of ou hearts.
