SEV Biblia, Chapter 27:7
Lo demás de los hechos de Jotam, y todas sus guerras, y sus caminos, he aquí está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Israel y de Judá.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 27:7
Verse 7. The rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways] It was in his days, according to 2 Kings xv. 37, that Rezin king of Syria, and Pekah king of Israel, began to cut Judah short. See the notes on 2 Kings xv. 36, 37. Written in the book of the kings, &c.] There is not so much found in the books of Kings which we have now, as in this place of the Chronicles. In both places we have abridged accounts only: the larger histories have long been lost. The reign of Jotham was properly the last politically prosperous reign among the Jews. Hezekiah and Josiah did much to preserve the Divine worship; but Judah continued to be cut short, till at last it was wholly ruined.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars , etc.] Not only with the Ammonites, but with the Syrians, and ten tribes, (see 2 Kings 15:37) and his ways, lo, they are written in the books of the kings of Israel and Judah ; not in the canonical books of Kings, but in the Chronicles of the kings of both nations, (see 2 Kings 15:36).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Jotham's reign in Judah.
--The people did corruptly. Perhaps Jotham was wanting towards the reformation of the land. Men may be very good, and yet not have courag and zeal to do what they might. It certainly casts blame upon the people. Jotham prospered, and became mighty. The more stedfast we ar in religion, the more mighty we are, both to resist evil, and to d good. The Lord often removes wise and pious rulers, and sends others whose follies and vices punish a people that valued not their mercies __________________________________________________________________
