And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
Tan pronto como Jehú terminó de ofrecer el holocausto, dijo a los guardias y capitanes: 'Entren y mátenlos a todos; no dejen que nadie escape.' Así que los hirieron con espadas, y los guardias y capitanes sacaron los cuerpos y entraron en la parte interior del templo de Baal.
Jehú ordenó matar a todos los adoradores de Baal después de terminar el sacrificio, y los guardias ejecutaron la orden sin dejar escapar a nadie.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 9th century BC, the northern kingdom of Israel was deeply divided by idolatry, with King Ahab and his wife Jezebel promoting the worship of Baal, which directly opposed God's commands. Jehu was anointed by the prophet Elisha as a divinely appointed king to execute God's judgment on Ahab's family and eradicate Baal worship from the land. In this specific event, Jehu used deception to gather Baal's followers for a supposed ceremony and then ordered their slaughter to cleanse Israel of this false religion.
