How preachers through history handled this text
4 public-domain excerpts on 2 Chronicles 36, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“The ruin of Judah and Jerusalem came on by degrees. The methods God takes to call back sinners by his word, by ministers, by conscience, by providences, are all instances of his compassion toward them, and his unwillingness that any should perish. See here what woful havoc sin makes, and, as we value the comfort and continuance of our earthly blessings, let us keep that worm from the root of them. …”
— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise), on 2 Chronicles 36:1–21 (Public Domain)
