Chronicles II 17:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 17:15

And next to him was Jehohanan the captain
Being of the same rank as to office, but having a lesser number of men under him; and it may respect not any kind of subordination, only nearness of place, as the Targum,

``he that encamped next to him''

and with him two hundred and fourscore thousand;
which number was but 20,000 less than the former.
