(24) And Jehu drew . . . strength.--See margin, which, however, is not quite accurate. Rather it should be, And Jehu had filled his hand (with an arrow) on the bow--i.e., had meanwhile put an arrow on his bow ready to shoot. Keil explains, "filled his hand with the bow," i.e., seized the bow. The phrase "to fill a bow" means to stretch it, both in Hebrew (Zechariah 9:13) and in Syriac (Psalm 11:2). In Psalm 64:4. Symmachus renders the Hebrew, "they have aimed their arrow," by the Greek, ????????? ?? ?????, "they have filled the bow."

And he sank down in his chariot. Jehoram fell into the "well," or body, of the chariot, and there lay, the chariot being brought to a stand.Parallel Commentaries ...
