2 Chronicles 35:22

Nevertheless, Josiah would not turn his face from him ,.... Or withdraw his forces, and go back:

but disguised himself that he might fight with him ; without being personally known, and aimed at, see 1 Kings 22:30 .

and hearkened not unto the words of Necho from the mouth of God : not believing that what he said came from the Lord, though it might; and his infirmity was, that he did not inquire of the Lord about it:

and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo ; which was in the tribe of Manasseh, thought to be the Magdolum of Herodotus, where he says Necho fought the battle F26 Gale in Herodot. ut supra. (Euterpe, sive, l. 2. c. 159. & Galei not. in ib.) ; See Gill on 2 Kings 23:29 .
