Anticipating his arrival, Jezebel put on make-up and a formal wig with adornments and looked out of a window and taunted him.

Jehu, however, remained unfazed and ordered Jezebel's [[eunuch]] servants to [[Defenestration|throw her from the window]]. Her blood splattered on the wall and horses, and Jehu's horse trampled her corpse. He entered the palace where, after he ate and drank, he ordered Jezebel's body to be taken for burial. However, only her skull, her feet, and the palms of her hands remained—her flesh had been eaten by stray dogs, just as the prophet Elijah had prophesied.<ref>{{Bibleverse||2 Kings|9:35-36|kjv|}}</ref><ref>See also [https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/jezebel-midrash-and-aggadah jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/jezebel-midrash-and-aggadah]</ref> [[Edwin R.
