"But Amaziah would not hear; for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

But Amaziah would not hear,.... What the king of Israel advised him to, not to meddle to his hurt: for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies; Amaziah and

his army into the hands of Joash and his; this was the will of God, and was brought about by his providence; and that it might be, Amaziah was given up to blindness and hardness of heart, as a punishment of his idolatry: because they sought after the gods of Edom; he and his nobles, and many of the people following his example; from hence to the end of the chapter the same things are recorded as in Kg2 14:11 , see the notes there; see Gill on Kg2 14:11 , Kg2 14:12 , Kg2 14:13 , Kg2 14:14 , Kg2 14:15 , Kg2 14:16 , Kg2 14:17 , Kg2 14:18 , Kg2 14:19 , Kg2 14:20 Next: 2 Chronicles Chapter 26 Sacred Texts | Bible « Previous: John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible: 2 Chronicles:...
