NOTES ON The Second Book of CHRONICLES
 
This book begins with the reign of Solomon, continues the history of the kings of Judah to the captivity, and concludes with the fall of that illustrious monarchy and the destruction of the temple. That monarchy, as it was prior in time, so it was in dignity to the four which Nebuchadnezzar dreamed of. The Babylonian began in Nebuchadnezzar himself, and lasted about seventy years: the Persian monarchy, in several families, about an hundred and thirty: the Grecian, in its several branches, about three hundred: and three hundred more went far with the Roman. Whereas the monarchy of Judah continued considerable in a lineal descent, between four and five hundred years. We had the story of the house of David before intermixt with that of the kings of Israel: but here we have its entire, much is repeated here which we had before: yet many passages are enlarged on, and divers added which we had not before, especially relating to religion: the reign of Solomon we have, chap. 1 - 9. That of Rehoboam, chap. 10 - 12. The short reign of Ahijah, chap. 13. The long rein of Asa, chap. 14 - 16. The reign of Jehoshaphat, chap. 17 - 20. Of Jehoram and Ahaziah, chap. 21, 22. Of Joash and Amaziah, chap. 23 - 25. Of Uzziah, chap. 26. Of Jotham, chap. 27. Of Ahaz, chap. 28. Of Hezekiah, chap. 29 - 32. Of Manasseh and Amon, chap. 33. Of Josiah, chap. 34, 35. Of his sons, chap. 36.
 
2 Chronicles Chapter 01 Solomon Asks for Wisdom


Chapter I

Solomon's sacrifices, ver. 1 - 6. His prayer and God's answer, ver. 7 - 12. The strength, wealth, and trade of Israel, ver. 13 - 17.

2 Spake - Concerning his intention of going to Gibeon, and that they should attend him thither.
4 The ark - He separated the ark from the tabernacle, and brought it to Jerusalem, where he intended to build a more noble and lasting habitation for it.
5 Sought - Sought the Lord and his favour by hearty prayers and sacrifices in the place which God had appointed.
8 To reign, &c. - Give me the spirit of my father David, that Israel may not suffer by the change. The eminency of those that went before us, and the obligation that lies upon us, to keep and carry on the good work they were engaged in, should quicken our prayers for wisdom and grace, that we may do the work of God in our day, as faithful as they did in theirs.
12 Neither &c. - Those that make this world their end, come short of the other, and frequently of this too. But those who make the other world their end, shall not only obtain that, but shalt have as much as is convenient of this world in their way.
