2 Chronicles 17:11 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 17:11

Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and
tribute silver
Perhaps those of Gerar, and the parts adjacent, Asa took and spoiled, and made tributary, ( 2 Chronicles 14:14 ) ,

and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand and seven hundred
rams, and seven thousand and seven hundred he goats;
with which their country abounded; and these might be the Scenite Arabs, who fearing lest Jehoshaphat should fall upon them, and take away their flocks as his father had done, ( 2 Chronicles 14:15 ) , brought these presents to him.

2 Chronicles 17:11 In-Context

9 docebantque in Iuda habentes librum legis Domini et circuibant cunctas urbes Iuda atque erudiebant populum

10 itaque factus est pavor Domini super omnia regna terrarum quae erant per gyrum Iuda nec audebant bellare contra Iosaphat

11 sed et Philisthei Iosaphat munera deferebant et vectigal argenti Arabes quoque adducebant pecora arietum septem milia septingentos et hircos totidem

12 crevit ergo Iosaphat et magnificatus est usque in sublime atque aedificavit in Iuda domos ad instar turrium urbesque muratas

13 et multa opera patravit in urbibus Iuda viri quoque bellatores et robusti erant in Hierusalem
