Commentary on 2 Chronicles 16:10

Theological / Devotional

Wroth with the seer. Hanani had acted as a messenger for God, passing on to Asa the word of the Lord concerning the foolish course the king had taken. But instead of accepting that message, Asa became angry and took out his wrath upon the prophet of the Lord. One foolish act led to another. Judah’s reformer became Judah’s tyrant and oppressor. Folly led to cruelty, ingratitude and gross injustice.
