Divrey Hayamim Bais 21:16 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 21:16

Moreover, the Lord stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of
the Philistines
Which had been depressed in the times of Jehoshaphat, to whom they brought their presents and tribute willingly, ( 2 Chronicles 17:11 )

and of the Arabians that were near the Ethiopians;
not the Ethiopians of Africa, as the Targum, for the Arabians were not near them, but the Chusaean Arabs or Midianites, see ( Numbers 12:1 ) . The Targum is, the Word of the Lord did this.

Divrey Hayamim Bais 21:16 In-Context

14 Hinei, with a maggefah gedolah (great plague) will Hashem strike thy people, and thy banim, and thy nashim, and all thy possessions;
15 And thou shalt have cholayim rabbim with machla (disease) of thy bowels, until thy bowels come out by reason of the choli yamim al yamim.
16 Moreover Hashem stirred up against Yehoram the ruach HaPelishtim, and of the Arabs, who lived near the Kushim;
17 And they came up against Yehudah, and invaded, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the Bais HaMelech, and also his banim, and his nashim; so that there was left him not a ben except Yehoachaz (Achazyahu, Ahaziah), the youngest of his banim.
18 And after all this Hashem struck him in his bowels with a choli for which there was no marpeh.
