1 Kings 15:22 - John Wesley's Notes

1 Kings 15:22

20 So Ben-Hadad heeded King Asa, and ^asent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. He attacked ^bIjon, ^cDan, ^dAbel Beth Maachah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.

21 Now it happened, when Baasha heard it, that he stopped building Ramah, and remained in ^aTirzah.

22 ^aThen King Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted. And they took away the stones and timber of Ramah, which Baasha had used for building; and with them King Asa built ^bGeba of Benjamin, and ^cMizpah.

23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But ^ain the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.

24 So Asa rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David his father. ^aThen ^bJehoshaphat his son reigned in his place.
