How preachers through history handled this text
3 public-domain excerpts on 2 Chronicles 13, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“THE SECRET OF VICTORY The children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the Lord God of their fathers.'--2 CHRON. xiii. 18. These words are the summing-up of the story of a strange old-world battle between Jeroboam, the adventurer who rent the kingdom, and Abijah, the son of the foolish Rehoboam, whose unseasonable blustering had played into the usurper's hands. The son was a wiser and better man than his father. …”
— Alexander MacLaren, Expositions of the Holy Scriptures: Second Kings from Chap., on 2 Chronicles 13:18–30 (Public Domain)
