Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible
2 Chronicles 18
2 Chronicles 17:1 to 2 Chronicles 20:37. The Reign of Jehoshaphat.—This section is, in the main, from the hand of the Chronicler, whose spirit and aim are visible throughout; he has utilised all the information concerning Jehoshaphat to be got from 1 K. viz. in 1 Kings 15:24; 1 Kings 22:1-35; 1 Kings 22:41-50 (see notes).
2 Chronicles 18:1-31. The alliance between Jehoshaphat and Ahab against Syria; their defeat. See notes on 1 Kings 22:1-35; the variations are unimportant.
