Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he had much business in the cities of Judah,.... Partly in fortifying them, and partly in reforming the inhabitants of them:

and the men of war, mighty men of valour, were in Jerusalem; or by or near unto it, so the particle is rendered, Joshua 5:13, they encamped in places adjacent to it; for such a number of men as follows, even 1,160,000, could never be contained in Jerusalem, but must be disposed of in the territories of it; nor did they wait on the king together; but in course, see 2 Chronicles 17:19, by which it appears there is no need to suppose any mistake of the transcriber, in any or all of the following sums, as has been suggested q.

q See Maitland's History of London, B. 3. ch. 2. p. 543.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 17:13. He had much business in the cities — He kept the people constantly employed; they had wages for their work; and by their labours the empire was both enriched and strengthened.
