Wesley's Notes for 2 Chronicles 19:2


19:2 Therefore - Therefore God will chastise thee for this miscarriage. Which he did partly by stirring up the Moabites, and others to invade him, chap.#20:1|, partly by permitting his eldest son Jehoram to kill all his brethren, chap.#21:4|, and principally by bringing that almost general destruction upon his grand - children by Jehu, #2Kings 9:27 10:13|,14, which was the fruit of his alliance with Ahab.
