Contextual Overview

¹⁰ And the fear of the Lord was on all the kingdoms of the lands round Judah, so that they made no wars against Jehoshaphat. ¹¹ And some of the Philistines took offerings to Jehoshaphat, and made him payments of silver; and the Arabians gave him flocks, seven thousand, seven hundred sheep, and seven thousand, seven hundred he-goats. ¹² Jehoshaphat became greater and greater, and made strong towers and store-towns in Judah. ¹³ He had much property in the towns of Judah; he had forces of armed men, great and strong, in Jerusalem. ¹⁴ This is the number of them, listed by their families, the captains of thousands of Judah: Adnah, the captain, and with him three hundred thousand men of war; ¹⁵ Second to him Jehohanan, the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand; ¹⁶ After him Amasiah, the son of Zichri, who freely gave himself to the Lord, and with him two hundred thousand men of war; ¹⁷ And the captains of Benjamin: Eliada, a great man of war, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bows and body-covers; ¹⁸ And after him Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand trained for war. ¹⁹ These were the men who were waiting on the king, in addition to those placed by the king in the walled towns through all Judah.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And next to him was Jehohanan the captain,.... Being of the same rank as to office, but having a lesser number of men under him; and it may respect not any kind of subordination, only nearness of place, as the Targum,

"he that encamped next to him''

and with him two hundred and fourscore thousand; which number was but 20,000 less than the former.
