Mais Jéroboam fit faire un détour à une embuscade, pour arriver derrière eux. Ainsi les Israélites étaient en face de Juda, et l'embuscade était derrière ceux-ci.

an ambushment: 2 Chronicles 20:22, Joshua 8:4, Proverbs 21:30, Jeremiah 4:22

Reciprocal: Joshua 8:2 - lay thee Judges 20:14 - General 1 Chronicles 5:20 - in the battle

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them,.... While Abijah was making his oration, he detached a party from his army, which got about, and lay in ambush, behind the army of Abijah:

so they were before Judah; Jeroboam and the greater part of his army:

and the ambushment was behind them; which Jeroboam had sent thither.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 13:13. But Jeroboam caused an ambushment — While Abijah was thus employed in reproving them, Jeroboam divided his army privately, and sent a part to take Abijah in the rear; and this must have proved fatal to the Jews, had not the Lord interposed.
