TSNTyndale Study Notes:

10:1-27 The writer focuses on two important events of Jehu’s reign: his murder of all who might claim Joram’s throne (10:1-17), and his execution of the priests of Baal (10:18-27).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) But they were terrified

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_saw very very and=they_said see/lo/see! two_of the,kings not stand before,face/front,him and,how stand we )

Alternate translation: “Then they were very afraid”

(Occurrence 0) the two kings

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_saw very very and=they_said see/lo/see! two_of the,kings not stand before,face/front,him and,how stand we )

Alternate translation: “two kings, Joram and Ahaziah”

(Occurrence 0) could not stand before Jehu

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_saw very very and=they_said see/lo/see! two_of the,kings not stand before,face/front,him and,how stand we )

Here “stand” means to be able to endure under trouble. Alternate translation: “could not endure against Jehu” or “could not resist Jehu”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) So how can we stand?

(Some words not found in UHB: and=they_saw very very and=they_said see/lo/see! two_of the,kings not stand before,face/front,him and,how stand we )

The descendants use the rhetorical question to imply that they cannot stand against Jehu. Alternate translation: “We cannot stand against him either!” or “We cannot resist him either!”
