24 Now Jehu drew his bow with full strength and shot Jehoram between his arms; and the arrow came out at his heart, and he sank down in his chariot.  
25 Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him into the tract of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember, when you and I were riding together behind Ahab his father, that athe Lord laid this bburden upon him:  
26 ‘Surely I saw yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons,’ says the Lord, a‘and I will repay you in this plot,’ says the Lord. Now therefore, take and throw him on the plot of ground, according to the word of the Lord.”

2 Kings 9:26

The blood of Naboth , and the blood of his sons - We are not informed in I Kings 21 that any of Naboth' s family was slain but himself: but as the object both of Ahab and Jezebel was to have Naboth' s vineyard entirely, and for ever, it is not likely that they would leave any of his posterity, who might at a future time reclaim it as their inheritance. Again, to secure this point, Jezebel had Naboth convicted of treason and atheism; in order that his whole family might be involved in his ruin.
