2 Chronicles 21:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 21:15

And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels,
&c.] Which was a just retaliation to him, for having no bowels of compassion on his brethren whom he slew:

until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day;
that continuing day after day, and even year after year, the space of two years, as appears from ( 2 Chronicles 21:19 ) .

2 Chronicles 21:15 In-Context

13 but you have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and have caused Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab prostituted itself. You have also killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you.

14 So behold, the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a serious blow.

15 And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to come out.’”

16 Then the LORD stirred against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs who lived near the Cushites.

17 So they went to war against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest.
