2Ki 9:33 — And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and [some] of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.

Phrase of Scripture		Correlating Passages

Throw her down		1Ki 21:11
and on the horses		This terrible mode of punishment appears to have been but rarely used, though we occasionally meet with it during this and subsequent periods. The same punishment, it is well known, obtained among the Romans, who used to throw certain malefactors from the Tarpeian rock. This practice obtains among the Moors at Constantia, a town of Barbary; and is also of frequent occurrence in Persia.
and he trode		2Ki 9:26; 2Ki 7:20; Isa 25:10; Lam 1:15; Mic 7:10; Mal 4:3; Mat 5:13; Hbr 10:29
