SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:39
Lo demás de los hechos de Acab, y todas las cosas que hizo, y la casa de marfil que edificó, y todas las ciudades que edificó, ¿no está todo escrito en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Israel?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Kings 22:39
Verse 39. Ivory house] A royal palace which he built in Samaria, decorated with ivory, and hence called the ivory house. Amos the prophet speaks against this luxury, Amos iii. 15.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 39. Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he made , etc.] Which, being a very curious and extraordinary thing, is particularly mentioned; though perhaps it might not be made wholly of ivory, but inlaid with it; we read of ivory houses in ( Amos 3:15), and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel ? in which the acts of his predecessors were recorded, (see 1 Kings 14:19 15:31 16:14,20,27) not the Scripture book of Chronicles, for there none of these things are related.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 29-40 - Ahab basely intended to betray Johoshaphat to danger, that he migh secure himself. See what they get that join with wicked men. How can it be expected that he should be true to his friend, who has been false to his God! He had said in compliment to Ahab, I am as thou art, and no he was indeed taken for him. Those that associate with evil-doers, ar in danger of sharing in their plagues. By Jehoshaphat's deliverance God let him know, that though he was displeased with him, yet he ha not deserted him. God is a friend that will not fail us when othe friends do. Let no man think to hide himself from God's judgment. God directed the arrow to hit Ahab; those cannot escape with life, whom God has doomed to death. Ahab lived long enough to see part of Micaiah' prophecy accomplished. He had time to feel himself die; with what horror must he have thought upon the wickedness he had committed!
