2 Chronicles 25:10

Then Amaziah separated them ,.... From his army, among whom they were incorporated and ranked, to wit:

the army that was come to him out of Ephraim ; which he had hired of the ten tribes, these he singled out:

to go home again ; to their own country:

wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger ; it being a great slight put upon them, and a reproach to them, to be thus dismissed, as they thought; and especially if they understood that it was because they were idolaters; and the rather as they might have hoped to have had their share in the plunder of the Edomites.
