Contextual Overview

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

These waited on the king,.... Not this vast number of men at one time, but in course, as David's military men waited on him, 1 Chronicles 27:1 or each of these captains, with a proper number of men under them detached from the body; and they were all ready to obey the king's orders whenever he should have occasion for them:

besides those whom the king put into the fenced cities throughout Judah; and all together, the militia of the kingdom was very numerous and formidable.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 17:19. These waited on the king — They were disposable forces, always at the king's command; and were independent of those by which the cities of Judah were garrisoned.

THERE is not a sovereign in Europe or in the world but might read this chapter with advantage.

1. It shows most forcibly that true religion is the basis of the state, and that, wherever it prospers, there the state prospers.

2. It shows also that it is the wisdom of kings to encourage religion with all their power and influence; for if the hearts of the subjects be not bound and influenced by true religion, vain is the application of laws, fines, imprisonments, or corporal punishment of any kind.

3. A religious nation is ever a great nation; it is loved by its friends, it is dreaded by its enemies.

4. It is ever a peaceable and united nation: the blessings of religion, and a wholesome and paternal government, are so fully felt and prized, that all find it their interest to preserve and defend them. Harmony, peace, piety, and strength, are the stability of such times. May Britain know and value them!
