2 Chronicles 10:1-6

1 profectus est autem Roboam in Sychem illuc enim cunctus Israhel convenerat ut constituerent eum regem
2 quod cum audisset Hieroboam filius Nabath qui erat in Aegypto fugerat quippe illuc ante Salomonem statim reversus est
3 vocaveruntque eum et venit cum universo Israhel et locuti sunt ad Roboam dicentes
4 pater tuus durissimo iugo nos pressit tu leviora impera patre tuo qui nobis gravem inposuit servitutem et paululum de onere subleva ut serviamus tibi
5 qui ait post tres dies revertimini ad me cumque abisset populus
6 iniit consilium cum senibus qui steterant coram patre eius Salomone dum adviveret dicens quid datis consilii ut respondeam populo

2 Chronicles 10:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO 2 CHRONICLES 10

This chapter is not only in sense the same, but is expressed almost in the selfsame words as First Kings chapter twelve, verses one through nineteen, so there needs not anything to be added to the notes there, which the reader is referred to.

The Latin Vulgate is in the public domain.
