10 And the feare of the Lorde fell vpon all the kingdomes of the landes that were rounde about Iuda, and they fought not against Iehosaphat. 11 And some of the Philistines brought Iehosaphat giftes, and tribute siluer, and therto the Arabians brought him cattaile, euen seuen thousand and seuen hundred rammes, and seuen thousand and seuen hundred hee goates. 12 And so Iehosaphat prospered, and grew vp an hie: And he built in Iuda castels and cities of store. 13 And he had great substaunce in the cities of Iuda: but the men of armes and strongest souldiers were in Hierusalem. 14 And these are the offices of them in the house of their fathers: the captaines ouer thousandes in Iuda, Adna the captayne, and with him of fighting men three hundred thousand. 15 And next to his hand was Iehohanan a captayne, and with him two hundred and fourescore thousand. 16 And next him was Amazia the sonne of Zichri, which of his owne good wyll offered him selfe vnto the Lorde, and with him two hundred thousand mightie men of warre. 17 And of the children of Beniamin, Eliada a man of might, and with him armed men with bowe and shielde two hundred thousand. 18 And next him was Iehosabad, and with him an hundred and fourescore thousand, that were prepared for the warre. 19 These wayted on the king, besides those which the king put in the strong cities throughout all Iuda.

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.
