Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they rose early in the morning,.... Being confident of success, animated by what the prophet said to them:
and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; which, according to Jerom u, was six miles from Bethlehem, and nine from Jerusalem, some say twelve, beyond which was nothing but a desert; it was part of the wilderness of Judah:
and as they went forth; out of Jerusalem, through one of the gates of it:
Jehoshaphat stood and said, believe in the Lord your God; in the promises he had made, particularly with respect to the victory over their present enemies; the Targum is,
"in the Word of the Lord your God:''
so shall you be established; have courage and firmness of mind, as well as be safe and secure:
believe his prophets; sent by him, and that speak in his name, particularly Jahaziel, who had predicted victory to them:
so shall ye prosper; things will succeed to your wishes, and beyond your expectations.
u Prooem. in Amos, and Comment. in ch. i. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Tekoa (2 Samuel 14:2 note) lay on the borders of the desert which skirts the highlands of Judaea toward the east. The town was built on a hill of a considerable height.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 20:20. Believe in the Lord your God — "Believe in the WORD of the Lord your God, and believe in his law, and believe in his prophets; and ye shall prosper." Here the WORD and the revelation are most pointedly distinguished; the Word being used personally.
