Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Chronicles 19:1-11

4. Jehoshaphat’s appointment of judges ch. 19Even though God had spared Jehoshaphat’s life in the battle, his close brush with death was the result of an unwise decision to help ungodly Ahab. A prophet rebuked him for this alliance (2 Chronicles 19:2)."A Christian’s attachment to God is necessarily expressed in the kind of atmosphere in which he prefers to live and move and have his being. Company, pursuits, ambitions will all bear upon them the mark of a love of God. This is by no means to put... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 19:1-11

Reign of Jehoshaphat (continued)The chapter narrates how Jehoshaphat was reproved by the seer Jehu for helping Ahab, and how he instituted judges in the cities of Judah.This chapter is entirely supplementary to the account of Jehoshaphat as given in 1 K.2. Jehu] previously only named in connexion with the northern kingdom in the reign of Baasha (1 Kings 16:7). Shouldest thou help the ungodly] The peace with Israel, ratified by a marriage (2 Kings 8:18), put an end to a war between two kindred... read more

Our Friendships 2 Chronicles 19:2 This is a most important and searching question, asked of a good man, a shining example among the rulers of his time of purity, truth, and goodness of character. An earnest reformer, faithful to Jehovah from the beginning to the end of his reign, was Jehoshaphat. It is the more distressing, therefore, to discover his defects. There are few things in life more distressing than the faults of good men. Faults which are the more conspicuous and glaring because... read more

JEHOSHAPHAT-THE DOCTRINE OF NONRESISTANCE2 Chronicles 17:1-19; 2 Chronicles 18:1-34; 2 Chronicles 19:1-11; 2 Chronicles 20:1-37ASA was succeeded by his son Jehoshaphat, and his reign began even more auspiciously than that of Asa. The new king had apparently taken warning from the misfortunes of Asa’s closing years; and as he was thirty-five years old when he came to the throne, he had been trained before Asa fell under the Divine displeasure. He walked in the first ways of his father David,... read more

CHAPTER 19 Rebuke and Restoration 1. The rebuke by the prophet (2 Chronicles 19:1-3 ) 2. Further revival and restoration (2 Chronicles 19:4-11 ) At sun-down Ahab, the King of Israel died, while his ally Jehoshaphat, saved through the mercy of God, returned to his home in peace in Jerusalem. Then Jelin, the son of Hanani, met him. Asa, the father of Jehoshaphat, had been rebuked by Hanani, and had put him in prison for it. The son of Hanani rebukes Jehoshaphat. We read no answer from the... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 19:1-11

JEHOSHAPHAT REPROVED (vv.1-3) Jehoshaphat's experience with Ahab ought to have been enough to speak deeply to him as to the folly of bad associations, but God knew he needed more than experience, so he sent Jehu the son of Hanani to meet Jehoshaphat and to ask him, "Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? (v.2). Jehoshaphat surely knew the answer to this was "'No," and Jehu adds, "Therefore the wrath of the Lord is upon you." If believers become involved in wrong... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 19:1-11

REHOBOAM AND JEHOSHAPHAT REHOBOAM (2 Chronicles 10-12) The story of the rejected counsel of the older men and what came of it (chap. 10) is practically as in 1 Kings 12:0 , and furnishes an illustration of the relation of divine sovereignty to human free agency. The fortification of Judah’s cities against Israel (chap. 11) was dwelt upon in the earlier books, as well as the return of the priests and Levites to Jerusalem. Rehoboam’s “wise” action (2 Chronicles 11:23 ) is to be taken in the... read more
