This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

2Ch_15:15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.

Ver. 15. For they had sworn with all their heart.] Not as she in the tragedy, who said, Iuravi lingua, mentem iniuratam gero, {a} I have sworn with my tongue, but my heart is unsworn; nor as equivocating Jesuits, who teach mental reservations in taking an oath - Pascenius scoffeth King James for the invention of his oath of allegiance; - but absque dolo malo, et ex animi sententia; truly and uprightly.
