2 Kings9:25
25 Then said Iohn to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father , the LORD laid this burden upon him.
Which might be when Ahab went in his Chariot, attended with his Nobles or Chief Officers (of which these were two) to take a formal and solemn possession of Naboth's Land: for then the Prophet Elijah met him, and denounced this Judgment against him, 1 King. 21. 17, &c.
i. e. This grievous Prophecy: for such are oft and truly called burdens, as Isa. 13. 1. and 15. 1. Ier. 23. 33, 34. Nah. 1. 1.
Marginal references: Or, I and tho[illegible: 1+ letters] were with them that rode together.; 1 Kin. 21. 29.
