Commentary

And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the host,.... For every soldier in the army: shields a nd spears; defensive and offensive weapons, the one to cover and protect their bodies, the other to push and pierce their enemies: and helmets, and habergeons; the first of these were a covering for the head in the day of battle, and the other coats of mail, to defend the body: and bows; to shoot arrows out of: and slings to cast stones; at which the Benjaminites formerly were very expert.
