2 Chronicles 29:10 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 29:10

Now it is in mine heart to make a covenant with the Lord God
of Israel
To renew one, as Asa and Jehoiada had done, promising to serve the Lord, and worship him according to his will:

that his fierce wrath might be turned from us;
under the tokens of which they still continued, and might expect it to break forth in other instances, unless a reformation was made.
