This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Object. It is said that he did join with Ahaziah herein, 2Ch_20:35,36.
Answ. That was before this time, and before the ships were broken; for the breaking of the ships, mentioned here, 1Ki_22:48, is noted to be the effect of his sin, in joining with Ahaziah, and of the prophecy consequent upon it, 2Ch_20:37. And good Jehoshaphat being warned and chastised by God for this sin, would not be persuaded to repeat it; whereby he showed the sincerity of his repentance.
