2 Cronache 28:5 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 28:5

Wherefore the Lord his God delivered him into the hand of the
king of Syria
Whose name was Rezin, ( 2 Kings 16:5 ) , though that is an after expedition to this, which is there related. The Lord is called the God of Ahaz, because he was so of right; he had dominion over him, and ought to have been worshipped by him; and, besides, he was so by virtue of the national covenant between God and the people Ahaz was king of; and moreover, Ahaz professed he was his God, though in an hypocritical manner, and he forsook the true worship of him:

and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them
captives, and brought them to Damascus;
whereas in a later expedition, related in ( 2 Kings 16:5 ) , they did not succeed:

and he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel;
whose name was Pekah:

who smote him with a great slaughter;
as is next related.

2 Cronache 28:5 In-Context

3 bruciò dei profumi nella valle del figliuolo di Hinnom, ed arse i suoi figliuoli nel fuoco, seguendo le abominazioni delle genti che l’Eterno avea cacciate d’innanzi ai figliuoli d’Israele;
4 e offriva sacrifizi e profumi sugli alti luoghi, sulle colline, e sotto ogni albero verdeggiante.
5 Perciò l’Eterno, il suo Dio, lo die’ nelle mani del re di Siria; e i Siri lo sconfissero, e gli presero un gran numero di prigionieri che menarono a Damasco. E fu anche dato in mano del re d’Israele, che gl’inflisse una grande sconfitta.
6 Infatti Pekah, figliuolo di Remalia, uccise in un giorno, in Giuda, centoventimila uomini, tutta gente valorosa, perché aveano abbandonato l’Eterno, l’Iddio dei loro padri.
7 Zicri, un prode d’Efraim, uccise Maaseia, figliuolo del re, Azrikam, maggiordomo della casa reale, ed Elkana, che teneva il secondo posto dopo il re.
