a certain man: 1 Kings 22:34

at a venture: Heb. in his simplicity, 2 Samuel 15:11

between the: etc. Heb. between the joints and between the breast plate, The shiryon, in Syriac, sheryono, seems to have covered both the back and breast of the warrior, and was consequently not properly a breast-plate, but a coat of mail or corslet. The corslet was made of flax or of wool woven very thick, of ox-hide, of brass, or of iron. The metallic corslet consisted not of solid piece, but of scales, hooks, or rings, connected like the links of a chain, that the warrior might move with greater ease. It was between the joints of this harness that Ahab received his mortal wound. 1 Kings 22:34, 1 Kings 22:35

wounded: Heb. made sick, 2 Chronicles 35:23

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 18:33. A certain man drew a bow — The Targum tells us who it was. "Now, Naaman, the captain of the host of the great king of Syria, drew a bow against him, (that the prophecy of Elijah the Tishbite, and of Micaiah the son of Imla, might be fulfilled,) and smote the king of Israel between the heart and the caul of the liver, through the place where the coat of mail is joined." 2 Kings 5:1 for this tradition.
