In these verse we have an account of a remarkable itinerant
ministry established by Jehoshaphat, in which three classes of
men were employed: 1. the Princes; 2. the Levites; 3. the
Priests. We may presume that the Princes instructed the
people in the nature of the civil law and constitution of the
kingdom; that the Levites instructed them in every thing that
appertained to the temple service, and ritual law; and that
the Priests instructed them in the nature and design of their
religion. Thus the nation became thoroughly instructed in
their duty to God, to the king, and to each other; they
therefore became as one man; and against a people thus united,
on such principles, no enemy could be successful.
