Commentary on 2 Chronicles 25:9

Theological / Devotional

For the hundred talents. This was a typical human reaction. Amaziah should have thought more of what was right or wrong than of the payment that had been made to the king of Israel, which would now prove to be a complete loss. But even if the men of Israel had accompanied him on the campaign to Edom, Amaziah would have been no better off. One foolish act can never be atoned for by another.
