2 Crônicas 26:6 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 26:6

And he went forth, and warred against the Philistines
Who in the times of Jehoram broke in upon Judah, and distressed them, ( 2 Chronicles 21:16 2 Chronicles 21:17 )

and brake down the wall of Gath;
which was one of the five principalities of the Philistines:

and the wall of Jabneh;
nowhere else mentioned in Scripture, but frequent in the Jewish writings; where the sanhedrim sometimes sat, and where was a famous university, and from whence sprung many of the Jewish rabbins; it is the same which in some writers is called Jamnia, and was a port near to Joppa; and belonged to the tribe of Dan, as Josephus ^F13 writes:

and the wall of Ashdod:
another of the principalities of the Philistines, the same with the Azotus of the New Testament; he dismantled all these places:

and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines;
where he placed garrisons to keep them in awe; see ( Amos 1:8 ) .

2 Crônicas 26:6 In-Context

4 Ele fez o que era reto aos olhos do Senhor, conforme tudo o que fizera Amazias seu pai.

5 E buscou a Deus enquanto viveu Zacarias, que o instruiu no temor de Deus; e enquanto buscou ao Senhor, Deus o fez prosperar.

6 Saiu e guerreou contra os filisteus, e derrubou o muro de Gate, o muro de Jabné e o muro de Asdode; e edificou cidades no país de Asdode e entre os filisteus;

7 porque Deus, o ajudou contra os filisteus e contra os árabes que habitavam em Gur-Baal, e contra os meunitas.

8 Os amonitas pagaram tributo a Uzias; e a sua fama se espalhou até a entrada do Egito, pois se tornou muito poderoso.
