Commentary on 2 Chronicles 12:6

Theological / Devotional

Humbled themselves. When threatened with judgment, proud Nineveh humbled itself and was accorded mercy by the Lord (Jonah 3:5-10). So also judgment brought Judah to its knees and to repentance.

The Lord is righteous. The people acknowledged that the Lord was just in permitting the judgments they deserved to come upon them.
