2 Chronicles 9:25 - Exposition

Four thousand stalls . Not forty thousand, as by error in 1 Kings 4:26 . The parallel mentions one thousand four hundred as the number of the chariots ( 2 Chronicles 1:14 ). Both agree in twelve thousand as the number of horsemen. Chariot cities ( 1 Kings 9:19 ; 2 Chronicles 1:14 ). Some of the horse and chariot depots were kept near the king, but the rest in those specially chosen and prepared cities, which might be nearest or fittest against time of war-need.
