2 Cronache 12:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 12:4

And he took the fenced cities which pertained to Judah
Which Rehoboam had lately built, and placed his sons in them, ( 2 Chronicles 11:5-12 2 Chronicles 11:23 ) , these he took without any opposition:

and came to Jerusalem;
there being no army to oppose him; and so Sesostris took many countries without fighting, and among the rest Phoenicia, as Manetho F15 relates, in which Judea may be included.

2 Cronache 12:4 In-Context

2 Laonde l’anno quinto del re Roboamo, Sisac, re di Egitto, salì contro a Gerusalemme perciocchè essi aveano misfatto contro al Signore,
3 con mille dugento carri, e con sessantamila cavalieri, e popolo senza fine, ch’era venuto con lui di Egitto, Libii, Succhei, ed Etiopi;
4 e prese le cittĂ  forti di Giuda, e venne fino in Gerusalemme.
5 Allora il profeta Semaia venne a Roboamo, ed a’ capi di Giuda, i quali si erano raccolti in Gerusalemme, d’innanzi a Sisac, e disse loro: Così ha detto il Signore: Voi mi avete abbandonato, ed io altresì vi ho abbandonati in mano di Sisac.
6 Ed i capi d’Israele, e il re, si umiliarono, e dissero: Il Signore è giusto.
