2 Chronicles 15:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 15:11

And they offered unto the Lord the same time
The Targum adds, on the feast of weeks, or Pentecost: of the spoil which they had brought; from the camp of the Ethiopians, and the cities of the Philistines:

seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep;
partly for burnt offerings, and partly for peace offerings, by way of thankfulness to the Lord for the victory he had given them, and for a feast at the making of the following covenant with him.

2 Chronicles 15:11 In-Context

9 Then Asa called together all the people of Judah and Benjamin, along with the people of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who had settled among them. For many from Israel had moved to Judah during Asa’s reign when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

10 The people gathered at Jerusalem in late spring, during the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign.

11 On that day they sacrificed to the LORD 700 cattle and 7,000 sheep and goats from the plunder they had taken in the battle.

12 Then they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD, the God of their ancestors, with all their heart and soul.

13 They agreed that anyone who refused to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, would be put to death—whether young or old, man or woman.
