SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:10
Pero Asa salió contra él, y ordenaron la batalla en el valle de Sefata junto a Maresa.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 10. Then Asa went out against him , etc.] Notwithstanding he brought so great an army with him: and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah ; where the Ethiopians were; he did not stay till they got further into his country, but marched against them when on the frontiers of it, and chose the valley to pitch in, as being more to the advantage of his smaller army; (see Judges 1:17).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Asa's piety, He strengthens his kingdom. --Asa aimed at pleasing God, and studied to approve himself to him Happy those that walk by this rule, not to do that which is right in their own eyes, or in the eye of the world, but which is so in God' sight. We find by experience that it is good to seek the Lord; it give us rest; while we pursue the world, we meet with nothing but vexation Asa consulted with his people how to make a good use of the peace the enjoyed; and concluded with them that they must not be idle, no secure. A formidable army of Ethiopians invaded Asa's kingdom. Thi evil came upon them, that their faith in God might be tried. Asa' prayer is short, but it is the real language of faith and expectatio from God. When we go forth in God's name, we cannot but prosper, an all things work together for the good of those whom he favours __________________________________________________________________
