EXPLANATION

Verse 32. Cried out. Par. add, to the Lord, and he helped him, and turned them away from him. The Jews (in Seder. Olam xvii.) acknowledge the same thing; and thus it was known that Josaphat was not the king of Israel, who would rather have invoked Baal. Menochius.—Perhaps he also declared the truth, and who he was, when he saw the Syrians surround him, crying, This is the king of Israel! 2 Chronicles 18:31. Tirinus.
