The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 27:8

This verse is identical with so much of 2 Chronicles 27:1 as has to do with same subject; that it is no mere careless repeated insertion, however, is evidenced by the name Jotham in that verse, in the place occupied by was in this verse. read more

A.M. 3246. B.C. 758. Jotham reigns well and prospers, 2 Chronicles 27:1-6 . The conclusion of his reign, 2 Chronicles 27:7-9 . 2 Chronicles 27:2. He did that which was right, &c.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 27:1-9

Prosperity followed by disaster (25:1-28:27)Succeeding kings of Israel are passed over in silence (2 Kings 13:1-25). Judah was to have nothing to do with the northern kingdom, not even to the hiring of Israelite soldiers. Amaziah took the advice, and was rewarded with victory in a battle against Edom. But the victory, instead of increasing his dependence on God, gave him a feeling of independence. He turned from God and worshipped idols. The ungodly northern kingdom then became God’s instrument... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Chronicles 27:1-9

K. Jotham ch. 27Jotham was also a good king. He built up the temple and so contributed to the greater glory of Yahweh (2 Chronicles 27:3). Consequently his neighbors to the east submitted to him and paid him tribute (2 Chronicles 27:5). The Chronicler clearly stated the reason Jotham became strong: "he ordered his ways [i.e., conducted himself] before the LORD his God" (2 Chronicles 27:6).However, Jotham appears to have failed to lead his people in righteousness (2 Chronicles 27:2). There was... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Chronicles 27:7

(7) And all his wars, and his ways.—See 2 Kings 15:36, “And all that he did.” The chronicler seems to have varied the phrase, in order to hint at the Syro-Ephraite war, mentioned in 2 Kings 15:37. read more

Charles John Ellicott

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Chronicles 27:8

(8) He was five and twenty years old.—A word for word repetition of 2 Kings 15:33, omitting the last clause about the queen-mother. Perhaps in one of the chronicler’s sources this notice occurred at the beginning, and in another at the end of the reign. This would account for its repetition here, after having been already stated in 2 Chronicles 27:1. read more
