2 Chronik 13:22

Schlachter Bibel

Was aber mehr von Abija zu sagen ist, und seine Wege und seine Reden, das ist geschrieben in der Schrift des Propheten Iddo. Und Abija legte sich zu seinen Vätern, und sie begruben ihn in der Stadt Davids; und Asa, sein Sohn, ward König an seiner Statt. Zu dessen Zeiten war das Land stille, zehn Jahre lang.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings,.... Not only his warlike actions, and his course of life, but some remarkable sayings of his, he being a man of wisdom and eloquence, as his above speech shows;

are written in the story of the prophet Iddo; who might write the history of his own times; see 1 Kings 15:7.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 13:22. Written in the story — במדרש bemidrash, "in the commentary;" this, as far as I recollect, is the first place where a midrash or commentary is mentioned. The margin is right.

His ways, and his sayings — The commentary of the prophet Iddo is lost. What his sayings were we cannot tell; but from the specimen in this chapter, he appears to have been a very able speaker, and one who knew well how to make the best use of his argument.
