Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible

2 Chronicles 16

Clinging to a Counterfeit Cross
Verses 1-14

2 Chronicles 16:1-6. Taken from 1 Kings 15:16-22 with unimportant variations.

2 Chronicles 16:7-10. With the words of 2 Chronicles 16:9, "from henceforth thou shalt have wars," contrast 1 Kings 15:16, "and there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days."

2 Chronicles 16:11-14. With the words "a very great burning" (2 Chronicles 16:14) cf. 2 Chronicles 21:19, Jeremiah 34:5; the reference is to sacrifice for the dead.
