2 Chronicles 14:14 - The Pulpit Commentary

2 Chronicles 14:14 - Exposition

The fear of the Lord came upon them ; i.e. on the cities round about Gerar.

Much spoil . The Hebrew word here used for "spoil" ( בִּזָּה ) is found only in Chronicles, Ezra, Esther, Nehemiah, Daniel, and once in Ezekiel ( Ezekiel 29:19 ).
