2 Chronicles 15:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 15:15

And all Judah rejoiced at the oath
The greater part of them; for some there might be who were dissemblers:

for they had sworn with all their heart;
in the sincerity and uprightness of their souls:

and sought him with their whole desire;
none being more or so desirable as he:

and he was found of them:
and favoured them with his presence:

and the Lord gave them rest round about;
from all their enemies.
