Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Whoever is missing shall not live.' But Jehu did this with cunning in order to destroy the worshipers of Baal — the text explicitly labels Jehu's strategy deceptive. His cunning serves religious purification, yet it remains fundamentally dishonest.
