2 Chronicles 15:6 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 15:6

And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city
Or one tribe of another; as the Ephraimites by the Gileadites, and the tribe of Benjamin by the other tribes; and Shechem by Abimelech, ( Judges 9:45 ) ( 12:6 ) ( Judges 20:21 Judges 20:24 Judges 20:44-48 ) ,

for God did vex them with all adversity;
both with foreign enemies and civil wars; and now it is intimated that this would be their case again, should they not keep close to the Lord their God.
