Commentary on 2 Chronicles 20:22

Theological / Devotional

Began to sing. Seldom has the world seen such a battle as this — men singing hymns of praise to God as the attack is about to begin. The people were living their faith, and God saw fit to honor it. The Lord had promised victory, and the people took Him at His word. Victory was theirs because they claimed it.

Set ambushments. The nature of these is not disclosed, but the result was that the forces sent against the Hebrews mutually exterminated each other (see v. 23).
