Commentaire sur Rois 1 22:38
וַיִּשְׁטֹ֨ף אֶת־הָרֶ֜כֶב עַ֣ל ׀ בְּרֵכַ֣ת שֹׁמְר֗וֹן וַיָּלֹ֤קּוּ הַכְּלָבִים֙ אֶת־דָּמ֔וֹ וְהַזֹּנ֖וֹת רָחָ֑צוּ כִּדְבַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֵּֽר׃
Tandis qu’on lavait son char auprès de la piscine de Samarie, les chiens léchèrent son sang, et les prostituées se baignaient. Ainsi se réalisa la parole du Seigneur.
Rashi on I Kings
And the dogs licked his blood. I say that Novos was killed there, for the prophet said, “In the place where the dogs licked the blood of Navos, etc.”18Above 21:19.19But how is this possible, Navos was killed in Yizreel while Achov was killed in Shomron? Radak suggests that Yizreel was near Shomron and the water of the pool in Shomron flowed to Yizreel where dogs licked Achov’s blood which was mixed in the water.

Rashi on I Kings
And they washed the weapons [there]. And they washed off blood from the weapons there, [Targum] Yonoson rendered it in this manner. But our Rabbis said, “Achov was a cold person, so Ezevel made for him the image of two prostitutes in his chariot.20Maseches Sanhedrin 39b and Rashi there. 21Alternatively, “the prostitutes bathed there,” in the pool of Shomron, which was now mixed with Achov’s blood.—Metzudas Dovid
