Context — The Encounter with Jehugenerated
2 Kings 9:18 describes a moment of tension as a horseman is sent to meet Jehu with a question from the king about peace. Jehu's response reveals his disregard for the inquiry, suggesting a more urgent agenda. This scene unfolds amidst Jehu's rise to power and the impending judgment on the house of Ahab, as seen in the surrounding verses.

The Key Word — שָׁל֔וֹם, sha.Lomgenerated
The Hebrew word שָׁלוֹם (shalom) conveys a rich meaning of completeness, wellness, and harmony. It is often used in contexts of peace, both physical and spiritual, reflecting a state of well-being in relationships.
In this verse, Jehu's dismissive response to the question of peace highlights his focus on action rather than dialogue. The use of שָׁלוֹם emphasizes the contrast between the king's inquiry and Jehu's urgent mission.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is וַיֵּלֶךְ, and he went, governing a series of clauses that describe the actions of the horseman and Jehu's responses. The structure emphasizes the sequence of actions and the dialogue that unfolds.
The sentence's flow reveals a direct command from Jehu, with subordinate clauses detailing the inquiry about peace and the watchman's report, showcasing the urgency of the situation.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates שָׁלוֹם as εἰρήνη, which also means peace but can imply a broader sense of tranquility and well-being. This choice reflects a similar understanding of the concept, though it may carry different connotations in Greek literature.
The Greek word ἐπορεύθη is used for the action of going, aligning closely with the Hebrew verb וַיֵּלֶךְ, indicating consistent translation choices between the two texts.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
2 Kings 9:18 describes how a horseman was sent to ask Jehu if he came in peace. Jehu dismisses the question and tells the rider to follow him. The watchman then reports that the messenger has reached them but is not returning, indicating a shift in the situation.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Jehu's response suggests that he is focused on his mission and does not consider the question of peace relevant to his current actions.
Peace is significant as it reflects the tension in the narrative; the inquiry about peace contrasts with the violent actions Jehu is about to undertake.
The watchman's report indicates that the messenger has reached Jehu but is not returning, signaling a change in the dynamics of the situation and foreshadowing Jehu's decisive actions.
The horseman serves as a messenger, carrying the king's inquiry to Jehu, but ultimately his role is overshadowed by Jehu's command and the urgency of the situation.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- What does Jehu's dismissal of the peace inquiry reveal about his character and priorities?
- In what ways does the concept of peace play a role in the larger narrative of Jehu's actions?
- How does the watchman's observation reflect the unfolding events in this passage?
- What can we learn from Jehu's response to the messenger about the nature of leadership and decision-making?

Of course Jehu wished to prevent an alarm being raised in Jezreel. Came to them.—Literally, came right up to them. (The Hebrew text should be corrected from 2 Kings 9:20.)

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
סוּס (sus) refers to both a 'swallow' and a 'horse,' derived from a root meaning to skip or leap. The word captures the swift nature of both the bird and the animal, often associated with chariot horses in the context of the Old Testament.

Horse
Always referred to in the Bible in connection with warlike operations, except Isa. 28:28. The war-horse is described Job 39:19-25. For a long period after their settlement in Canaan the Israelites made no use of horses, according to the prohibition, Deut. 17:16. David was the first to form a force of cavalry (2 Sam. 8:4). But Solomon, from his connection with Egypt, greatly multiplied their number (1 Kings 4:26; 10:26, 29). After this, horses were freely used in Israel (1 Kings 22:4; 2 Kings 3:7; 9:21, 33…
The most striking feature in the biblical notices of the horse is the exclusive application of it to warlike operations; in no instance is that useful animal employed for the purposes of ordinary locomotion or agriculture, if we except (Isaiah 28:28) The animated description of the horse in (Job 39:19-25) applies solely to the war-horse. The Hebrews in the patriarchal age, as a pastoral race, did not stand in need of the services Of the horse, and for a long period after their settlement in Canaan they dispensed with it, partly in consequence of the hilly nature of the country, which only admitted of the use of chariots in certain localities, (Judges 1:19) and partly in consequence to the prohibition in (17:16) which would be held to apply at all periods. David first established…

King
Is in Scripture very generally used to denote one invested with authority, whether extensive or limited. There were thirty-one kings in Canaan (Josh. 12:9, 24), whom Joshua subdued. Adonibezek subdued seventy kings (Judg. 1:7). In the New Testament the Roman emperor is spoken of as a king (1 Pet. 2:13, 17); and Herod Antipas, who was only a tetrarch, is also called a king (Matt. 14:9; Mark 6:22).
This title is applied to God (1 Tim. 1:17), and to Christ, the Son of God (1 Tim. 6:15, 16;
"a chief ruler, one invested with supreme authority over a nation, tribe or country." --Webster. In the Bible the word does not necessarily imply great power or great extent of country. Many persons are called kings whom we should rather call chiefs or leaders. The word is applied in the Bible to God as the sovereign and ruler of the universe, and to Christ the Son of God as the head and governor of the Church. The Hebrews were ruled by a king during a period of about 500 years previous to the destruction of Jerusalem, B.C. 586. The immediate occasion of the substitution of a regal form of government for that of judges seems to have been the siege of Jabesh-gilead by Nahash king of the Ammonites. (1 Samuel 11:1; 12:12) The conviction seems to have forced itself on the Israelites that they could not resist their formidable neighbor…

mes'-en-jer: The regular Hebrew word for "messenger" is mal'akh, the Greek aggelos. This may be a human messenger or a messenger of God, an angel. The context must decide the right translation. In Hag 1:13 the prophet is called God's messenger; Job 33:23 changes the King James Version to "angel" (margin "messenger"); and Mal 3:1 margin, suggests "angel" instead of "messenger." Mal 2:7 and Mal 3:1 (twice) have caused a great deal of comment. See MALACHI. The Greek apostolos, "apostle," is rendered "messenger" in 2Co 8:23;
Messenger
(Heb. mal’ak, Gr. angelos), an angel, a messenger who runs on foot, the bearer of despatches (Job 1:14; 1 Sam. 11:7; 2 Chr. 36:22); swift of foot (2 Kings 9:18).
