II Chronicles 23:1 | And *in the seventh year, Joiada being encouraged, took the captains of hundreds, to wit, Azarias, the son of Jeroham, and Ismahel, the son of Johanan, and Azarias, the son of Obed, and Maasias, the son of Adaias, and Elisaphat, the son of Zechri: and made a covenant with them. Commentary: | Year of the World 3126, Year before Christ 879.; 4 Kings xi. Seventh. Vatican Septuagint, by mistake, has "the eighth." --- Encouraged, or "strengthened." (Septuagint, etc.) (Haydock) --- Captains, whether Levites, or ancient officers of the crown, who were dissatisfied with the usurper, 4 Kings xi. |
