25:1–28 Amaziah. Throughout his reign, Amaziah is halfhearted in his loyalty to God. His final failure comes after a steady degeneration.

2 Chron. 25:2 yet not with a whole heart. Second Kings 14:4 mentions that Amaziah failed to remove the high places.

2 Chron. 25:5–16 These verses describe the background and aftermath of the war against Edom (see 2 Kings 14:7).

2 Chron. 25:17–24 wild beast . . . trampled down the thistle. See note on 2 Kings 14:9–10. The Israelite king Joash interprets Amaziah’s invitation as a challenge to battle. Amaziah’s refusal to listen to Joash’s blunt advice was of God, that is, subject to his sovereign control (compare 2 Chron. 10:15; 22:7). Obed-edom. See 1 Chron. 13:14; 26:15.

2 Chron. 25:25–28 The conspiracy against Amaziah (see note on 2 Kings 14:19) began when he turned away from the Lord, perhaps referring to 2 Chron. 25:14, 20.
