printed editions, and all the versions, as well as necessity
and common sense.

- a book.
Literally, "a book of the law of the Lord, by the hand of
Moses," i.e, as Dr. Kennicott understands it, "in the
handwriting of Moses;" for, says he, though there are fifteen
places in the Old Testament which mention the "Law of Moses,"
and "book of Moses," yet this one place only mentions "the
book of the law in, or by, the hand of Moses."
- the law.
* 2Ch 12:1; 31:4; 35:26 De 17:18,19 Jos 1:8 Ezr 7:10 Ps 1:2 Isa 5:24

- Ahikam.
* 2Ki 25:22 Jer 26:24; 40:6,9,14
- Abdon.
This person seems to have borne both the name of Achbor and
Abdon.
* 2Ki 22:12
- Achbor.
* Jer 26:22
- Michah.
Michaiah, [MŒykayeh-w <\\S#4321h\\>,] as he is named in the
parallel passage, is here called [MŒykƒh <\\S#4318h\\>,]
Michah, merely by the omission of [Yƒhh <\\S#3050h\\>,] {yah,}
one of the Divine names.
- Asaiah.
This variation only exists in the translation; the original
being uniformly Asaiah, or rather, Asayah.
* 2Ki 22:12
- Asahiah.
VERSE 21
- enquire.

* Ro 1:18; 2:8-12; 4:15
VERSE 22
- the prophetess.
* Ex 15:20 Jud 4:4 Lu 1:41-45; 2:36 Ac 21:9
- Hasrah.
Hasrah is most probably a mistake for Harhas; as the
Septuagint reads, both here and in the parallel place, [ .]
- Aras. See on
* 2Ki 22:14
- Harhas.
- wardrobe. Heb. garments. college. or, school, or second
part.
It is probable that {Mishneh} was either the name of a street,
or a particular part of the city of Jerusalem.

* 2Ki 22:15-20 Jer 21:3-7; 37:7-10

VERSE 26
- as for.
* :21,23
VERSE 27
- Because.
"Because," says the Targumist, "thy heart was melted, and thou
hast humbled thyself in the sight of the word of the Lord,
{meymra dyya,} when thou didst hear His words, {yath
pithgamoi,} against this place." Here {meymra,} the personal
word, is plainly distinguished from {pithgam,} a word spoken.
- thine heart. See on ch.
* 2Ch 32:12,13 2Ki 22:18,19 Ps 34:18; 51:17 Isa 57:15; 66:2 Eze 9:4

- the book.
* :15,18,19,24 Ex 24:7 2Ki 23:2,21 Jer 31:31,32
VERSE 31
- In his place.
Instead of {ƒl "mdo,} "in his place," the parallel passage
2 Ki 3 23:3, has {ƒl h„ƒmmood,} "by the pillar;" which is
probably the true reading, as the LXX. in both places read
[ ,] "the pillar."
* 2Ch 6:13 2Ki 11:4; 23:3 Eze 46:2
- made a covenant.
This was expressed, 1. In general, To walk after Jehovah; to
have no gods beside him. 2. To take this law for the
regulation of their conduct. 3. In particular, To bend their
whole heart and soul to the performance of it; so that they
might not only have religion without, but piety within.
