This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Jehoram was first made king or viceroy by his father divers years before this time, to wit, at his expedition to Ramoth-gilead, as was noted before; which dominion of his ended at his father’s return. But now Jehoshaphat, being not far from his death, and having divers sons, and fearing some competition and dissension among them, makes Jehoram king the second time, as David did Solomon upon the like occasion, 1Ch_29:22, which is the thing here related. But of this See Poole "2Ki_1:17"; See Poole "2Ki_3:1".
