SEV Biblia, Chapter 25:10
Entonces Amasías apartó el escuadrón de la gente que había venido a él de Efraín, para que se fuesen a sus casas; y ellos se enojaron grandemente contra Judá, y volvieron a sus casas encolerizados.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 25:10
Verse 10. They returned home in great anger] They thought they were insulted, and began to meditate revenge. See the notes on 2 Kings xiv. 1-20, where almost every circumstance in this chapter is examined and explained.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 10. Then Amaziah separated them , etc.] From his army, among whom they were incorporated and ranked, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim ; which he had hired of the ten tribes, these he singled out: to go home again ; to their own country: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger ; it being a great slight put upon them, and a reproach to them, to be thus dismissed, as they thought; and especially if they understood that it was because they were idolaters; and the rather as they might have hoped to have had their share in the plunder of the Edomites.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-13 - Amaziah was no enemy to religion, but cool and indifferent friend. Man do what is good, but not with a perfect heart. Rashness makes work for repentance. But Amaziah's obedience to the command of God was to his honour. A firm belief of God's all-sufficiency to bear us out in ou duty, and to make up all the loss and damage was sustain in his service, will make his yoke very easy, and his burden very light. When we are called to part with any thing for God and our religion, i should satisfy us, that God is able to give us much more than this Convinced sinners, who have not true faith, always object to self-denying obedience. They are like Amaziah; they say, But what shal we do for the hundred talents? What shall we do if by keeping the sabbath holy we lose so many good customers? What shall we do withou this gain? What shall we do if we lose the friendship of the world Many endeavour to quiet their consciences by the pretence tha forbidden practices are necessary. The answer is, as here, The Lord i able to give thee much more than this. He makes up, even in this world for all that is given up for his sake.
