Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Zemaraim: Zemaraim could not be, as some have supposed, the same as the hill of Samaria, שמרון [Strong's H8111], so called from Shemer, in the days of Omri; but was probably a hill on the confines of Ephraim, near Zemaraim, a city of Benjamin, near Bethel. Genesis 10:18, Joshua 18:22

Hear me: 2 Chronicles 15:2, Judges 9:7

Reciprocal: Isaiah 40:9 - get Jeremiah 31:6 - upon

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Abijah stood upon Mount Zemaraim, which is in Mount Ephraim,.... Which might have its name from a city of Benjamin of this name, to which it was near, though within the borders of Ephraim, Joshua 18:22 formerly inhabited by the Zemarites, from whence it might have its name, Genesis 10:18 here Abijah stood, that he might be the better heard by the armies pitched in the valley; and very probably he desired a parley, and it was granted, otherwise he would not have been safe in the position in which he was;

and said, hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel; as many as were now gathered together, and which were a great number.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 13:4. Stood up upon Mount Zemaraim — "Which was a mount of the tribe of the house of Ephraim."-Targum. Jarchi thinks that Abijah went to the confines of the tribe of Ephraim to attack Jeroboam. It could not be Shomeron, the mount on which Samaria was built in the days of Omri king of Israel, 1 Kings 16:24.
