2 Chronicles 14:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 14:14

And they smote all the cities round about Gerar
The cities of the Philistines, who were auxiliaries and confederates with these Ethiopians, and colonies from them, according to Theodoret, and who says, about Eleutheropolis was a place, called, in his time, Geraron Saton:

for the fear of the Lord came upon them;
so that they had no power to defend themselves, and oppose the men of Judah:

and they spoiled all the cities;
of the goods and substance that were in them:

for there was exceeding much spoil in them;
great wealth and riches of one kind or another.

2 Chronicles 14:14 In-Context

12 exterruit itaque Dominus Aethiopas coram Asa et Iuda fugeruntque Aethiopes
13 et persecutus est eos Asa et populus qui cum eo erat usque Gerar et ruerunt Aethiopes usque ad internicionem quia Domino caedente contriti sunt et exercitu illius proeliante tulerunt ergo spolia multa
14 et percusserunt omnes civitates per circuitum Gerare grandis quippe cunctos terror invaserat et diripuerunt urbes et multam praedam asportaverunt
15 sed et caulas ovium destruentes tulerunt pecorum infinitam multitudinem et camelorum reversique sunt Hierusalem
