 * and took every.
   The spreading of garments in the street, before persons to
   whom it was intended to shew particular honour, was an ancient
   and very general custom; the garments in these cases being
   used for carpets.  In the Agamemnon of (9273)chylus, the
   hypocritical Clytemnestra commands the maids to spread carpets
   before her returning husband, that on his descending from his
   chariot he may place his foot on "a purple-covered path."  We
   also find this custom among the Romans.  Plutarch relates,
   that when Cato of Utica left the Macedonian army, where he had
   become legionary tribune, the soldiers spread their clothes in
   the way.

 * on the top.
   The ancient fortified cities were generally strengthened with
   a citadel, (Jud 9:46, 51,) commonly built on an eminence, to
   which they ascended by a flight of stairs, (Ne 3:15.)  It is
   extremely probable, therefore, that Ramoth-gilead, being a
   frontier town of Israel and Syria, had a tower of this nature;
   and that Jehu was proclaimed king on the top of the stairs by
   which they ascended the hill on which the tower stood, i.e.,
   in the area before the door of the tower, and consequently the
   most public place in the city.
