JEHORAM'S IDOLATRY. THE REVOLT OF EDOM AND LIBNAH

(2Chronicles 21:5-11).

This section is parallel with 2Kings 8:17-22.

(5) Jehoram was thirty and two years old.--2Kings 8:17, "he was;" because the name had just occurred in the former verse.

Verse 5. - He reigned eight years. This rejoin dates to begin with the twenty-second or twenty-third year of the reign of his father Jehoshaphat, according to note on ver. 1, above. The parallel of 2 Kings 8:17-21 may be consulted for our vers. 5-11; our vers. 11, 13 expound in clearer detail the "evil" that Jehoram wrought than the narrative of Kings.
