    2 Chronicles 10

    This chapter is copied almost verbatim from 1 Kings 12:1-12:19, 10:1-10:19, where it was opened at large. Solomon’s defection from God was not repeated, but the defection of the ten tribes from his family is, in this chapter, where we find, I. How foolish Rehoboam was in his treating with them, 2 Chronicles 10:1, 10:5-10:14. II. How wicked the people were in complaining of Solomon (2 Chronicles 10:2-10:4) and forsaking Rehoboam, 2 Chronicles 10:16-10:19. III. How just and righteous God was in all this, 2 Chronicles 10:15. His counsel was thereby fulfilled. With him are strength and wisdom; both the deceived and the deceiver (the fool and the knave) are his (Job 12:16), that is, are made use of by him to suit his purposes.MHBCC 378.1
