(8) In his days the Edomites revolted.--2Kings 8:20. See also 1Kings 22:47, from which it appears that under Jehoshaphat "a deputy," or viceroy, ruled in Edom. (Comp. 2Chronicles 20:35, Note.)

Verse 8. - In his days the Edomites revolted... made themselves a king. The expression, "in his days," scarcely fails intending to accentuate the mournful change now as compared with the state of things depicted in our ch. 17:5-11.
