2 Kings 11:15,16 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

I beg the Reader not to overlook the constant care to preserve the temple unpolluted. No human sacrifice was ever to be offered there but one: and that only in the end of the world to put away sin. And though this offering was the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all, yet his God-head gave virtue and efficacy to the sacrifice. Blessed Jesus! how hast thou by that one offering, perfected forever them that are sanctified! Hebrews 10:14.

2 Kings 11:15-16

15 But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.

16 And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king's house: and there was she slain.
