Contextual Overview
10 And the fear of the Lord came upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Juda, and they durst not make war against Josaphat. 11 The Philistines also brought presents to Josaphat, and tribute in silver, and the Arabians brought him cattle, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and as many he goats. 12 And Josaphat grew, and became exceeding great: and he built in Juda houses like towers, and walled cities. 13 And he prepared many works in the cities of Juda: and he had warriors, and valiant men in Jerusalem. 14 Of whom this is the number of the houses and families of every one: in Juda captains of the army, Ednas the chief, and with him three hundred thousand most valiant men. 15 After him Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand. 16 And after him was Amasias the son of Zechri, consecrated to the Lord, and with him were two hundred thousand valiant men. 17 After him was Eliada valiant in battle, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield. 18 After him also was Jozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready for war. 19 All these were at the hand of the king, beside others, whom he had put in the walled cities, in all Juda.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
These waited on the king,.... Not this vast number of men at one time, but in course, as David's military men waited on him, 1 Chronicles 27:1 or each of these captains, with a proper number of men under them detached from the body; and they were all ready to obey the king's orders whenever he should have occasion for them:
besides those whom the king put into the fenced cities throughout Judah; and all together, the militia of the kingdom was very numerous and formidable.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 17:19. These waited on the king — They were disposable forces, always at the king's command; and were independent of those by which the cities of Judah were garrisoned.
THERE is not a sovereign in Europe or in the world but might read this chapter with advantage.
1. It shows most forcibly that true religion is the basis of the state, and that, wherever it prospers, there the state prospers.
2. It shows also that it is the wisdom of kings to encourage religion with all their power and influence; for if the hearts of the subjects be not bound and influenced by true religion, vain is the application of laws, fines, imprisonments, or corporal punishment of any kind.
3. A religious nation is ever a great nation; it is loved by its friends, it is dreaded by its enemies.
4. It is ever a peaceable and united nation: the blessings of religion, and a wholesome and paternal government, are so fully felt and prized, that all find it their interest to preserve and defend them. Harmony, peace, piety, and strength, are the stability of such times. May Britain know and value them!
