Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · 19th-century historical commentary

The Ammonites, who had submitted to Uzziah 2 Chronicles 26:8, revolted against Jotham. This revolt he firmly repressed; and, to punish it, he exacted a high rate of tribute for the three years following the termination of the war. The productiveness of the Ammonite country in grain, which is here indicated, has been remarked upon as extraordinary by modern travelers. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
