2 Chronicles 32:29 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 32:29

Moreover, he provided him cities
Where he had the above storehouses and stalls, and convenient dwellings for those that looked after them, and were over his cattle, small and great, as follows; the Vulgate Latin version reads six cities in some copies ^F2:

and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance;
in which the riches of men, and even of kings, lay in those times:

for God had given him substance very much;
for all was owing to his disposing providence, let it come which way it might.
