20 noluit audire Amasias eo quod Domini esset voluntas ut traderetur in manibus hostium propter deos Edom

2 Chronicles 25:20 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 20-28. But Amaziah would not hear
What the king of Israel advised him to, not to meddle to his hurt;

for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand [of their
enemies];
Amaziah and his army into the hands of Joash and his; this was the will of God, and was brought about by his providence; and that it might be, Amaziah was given up to blindness and hardness of heart, as a punishment of his idolatry:

because they sought after the gods of Edom;
he and his nobles, and many of the people following his example; from hence to the end of the chapter the same things are recorded as in ( 2 Kings 14:11-20 ) , see the notes there, (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:11) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:12) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:13) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:14) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:15) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:16) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:17) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:18) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:19) (See Gill on 2 Kings 14:20)
