Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Yet: "And so fulfilled. Genesis 27:40." 2 Kings 8:20

Libnah: 2 Kings 19:8, Joshua 21:13, 2 Chronicles 21:10

Reciprocal: Joshua 10:29 - Libnah Joshua 15:42 - Libnah 2 Kings 1:1 - after the Isaiah 37:8 - Libnah

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day,.... Joram not pursuing the enemy, and taking the advantage of the victory, but returning to his own land, the reason of which follows:

then Libnah revolted at the same time; a considerable city in his own kingdom, a Levitical one; this revolt was occasioned, perhaps, by his idolatrous practices, and which he compelled his subjects to; of this city, see Joshua 10:29.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Libnah revolted - Libnah being toward the southwest of Palestine Joshua 15:42, its revolt cannot well have had any direct connection with that of Edom. It had been the capital of a small Canaanite state under a separate king before its conquest by Joshua Joshua 10:30; Joshua 12:15, and may perhaps always have retained a considerable Canaanite population. Or its loss may have been connected with the attacks made by the Philistines on Jehoram’s territories 2 Chronicles 21:16-17.
