Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per frasa)

Wesley: 2Ch 21:15 - People

Because the generality of them sinned, in complying with his wicked and idolatrous commands.

Wesley: 2Ch 21:15 - Wives

Whose lives shall go for the lives of thy brethren, 2Ch 21:4.

JFB: 2Ch 21:12-15 - there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet

That prophet's translation having taken place in the reign of Jehoshaphat [2Ki 2:11-12], we must conclude that the name of Elijah has, by the error of a transcriber, been put for that of Elisha.

JFB: 2Ch 21:13-19 - hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem . . . like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab

That is, introduced the superstitions and vices of Phœnician idolatry (see on Deu 13:6-14). On this account, as well as for his unnatural cruelties, divine vengeance was denounced against him, which was soon after executed exactly as the prophet had foretold. A series of overwhelming calamities befell this wicked king; for in addition to the revolts already mentioned, two neighboring tribes (see 2Ch 17:11) made hostile incursions on the southern and western portions of his kingdom. His country was ravaged, his capital taken, his palace plundered, his wives carried off, and all his children slain except the youngest. He himself was seized with an incurable dysentery, which, after subjecting him to the most painful suffering for the unusual period of two years, carried him off, a monument of the divine judgment. To complete his degradation, his death was unlamented, his burial unhonored by his subjects. This custom, similar to what obtained in Egypt, seems to have crept in among the Hebrews, of giving funeral honors to their kings, or withholding them, according to the good or bad characters of their reign.

Clarke: 2Ch 21:15 - Until thy bowels fall out

Until thy bowels fall out - This must have been occasioned by a violent inflammation: by the same death perished Antiochus Epiphanes, and Herod Agrippa.

TSK: 2Ch 21:15 - by disease // thy bowels fall // the sickness

by disease : This is supposed to have been a violent dysentery, a disease which is often attended with symptoms similar to those described in the text; by the same death perished Antiochus Ephiphenes, and Herod Agrippa. 2Ch 21:18, 2Ch 21:19; Num 5:27; Deu 28:61; Act 12:23

thy bowels fall : Psa 109:18; Act 1:18

the sickness : 2Ch 21:18; Deu 28:27, Deu 28:37, Deu 28:59, Deu 28:67

Gill: 2Ch 21:15 - And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels // until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day

And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels,.... Which was a just retaliation to him, for having no bowels of compassion on his brethren whom he slew:

until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day; that continuing day after day, and even year after year, the space of two years, as appears from 2Ch 21:19.
