Lists and Questions Top 10 Lessons from 2 Chronicles 10What is the significance of the Tribe of Judah? (2 Chronicles 17:10) If surrounding nations truly feared the Lord due to Jehoshaphat, why is there no clear extrabiblical historical record of this widespread fear? In Joshua 14:3-4, how does the Levites' lack of a territorial inheritance align with other biblical passages that mention Levitical cities and lands? Why does 2 Chronicles 11:13-17 claim a Levite migration to Judah when there is minimal historical or archaeological support for such a major priestly exodus?Verse 17. - To the tribe of Judah the family of David belonged. There was less inclination on this ground, to begin with, among them to go to the length of revolting. Though they too are pressed with burden and taxation, yet royal expenditure, residence, magnificence, are all near them, and are some solarium doubtless to them. God said that this tribe and (as is abundantly evident from Ahijah's forcibly dramatic parable of the rent garment) Benjamin also should be saved to Rehoboam and for ever to David's line, and again it is evident that he works in the midst of human event, and moral cause and effect. Israel would not have revolted but that Jeroboam was of Ephraim, and Judah would not have remained steadfast but that, with other determining influences also, to Judah belonged Rehoboam and Solomon and David.
