(19) His prayer also . . . of him.--And his prayer, and the hearing him. Literally, and the being propitious to him (the same verb as in 2Chronicles 33:13 and Genesis 25:21).

All his sins, and his trespass.--All his sin and his unfaithfulness. 2Kings 21:17 has, "And his sin that he sinned." The chronicler, as usual, heightens the expression.

Groves.--The Ash?rim. (See Note on 2Chronicles 33:3.)

Among the sayings of the seers.--In the history of Hozai. This work was, therefore, the source from which the chronicler derived his additional information about the reign of Manasseh. (See Introduction.) The LXX. has "the seers;" but the Vulg., "in sermonibus Hozai," and the Syriac, "in the story of Hanan the prophet." It is pretty clear that Hozai is simply a mutilated form of ha-hozim, "the seers," a term which occurred in 2Chronicles 33:17. . . .
