SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:34
Lo demás de los hechos de Josafat, primeros y postreros, he aquí están escritos en las palabras de Jehú hijo de Hanani, del cual es hecha mención en el libro de los reyes de Israel.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 20:34
Verse 34. In the book of Jehu] This is totally lost, though it is evident that it was in being when the books of Chronicles were written.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 34. Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last , etc.] Those that were done at the beginning, and those that were done at the latter end of his reign: behold, they are written in the book of Jehu, the son of Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel ; (see 1 Kings 16:1,7), the same that reproved Jehoshaphat, ( 2 Chronicles 19:2). He wrote a book of his own times, and which was so much esteemed, according to Kimchi, that it was written with, or put along with, the book of the kings of Israel, for so he interprets the phrase; but the Targum understands it of Jehu being the king’s historiographer, who had the care and oversight of the diary, journal, or annals of the kings of Israel.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 31-37 - Jehoshaphat kept close to the worship of God, and did what he could to keep his people close to it. But after God had done such great thing for him, given him not only victory, but wealth; after this, to go an join himself with a wicked king, was very ungrateful. What could he expect but that God would be angry with him? Yet it seems, he took the warning; for when Ahaziah afterward pressed him to join him, he woul not, 1Ki 22:49. Thus the alliance was broken, and the Divine rebuke ha its effect, at least for a season. Let us be thankful for any losse which may have prevented the loss of our immortal souls. Let us prais the Lord, who sought after us, and left us not to perish in our sins __________________________________________________________________
