came down. In every sense of the word; and this after 2 Chronicles 17:1. First was the matrimonial alliance (2 Chronicles 18:1), compare 2 Kings 8:18. and then the military alliance (1 Kings 22:4 and 2 Chronicles 18:3). No mention here of the former, which was the secret cause that led up to it. Both fatal. Compare the commercial alliance of Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20:35-37, and the experience gained by Jehoshaphat in Ch. 1Ki 22:48, 1 Kings 22:49.
