Or, directed or set thy heart<\/I>, i.e. thou hast sought and served God with all thy heart, and not feignedly, as many others do. And this work of preparing or directing his heart is here ascribed to Jehoshaphat, as elsewhere it is attributed to God, Pro 16:1<\/span>; Phi 2:13<\/span>, because it is mans action, but performed by Gods grace, preventing, enabling, and inclining him to it. <\/P> <\/p>\n Nevertheless, there are good things found in thee<\/strong>,…. Principles of grace, righteousness, and holiness, faith, love, zeal, and other graces, true and genuine, from whence sprung many good works done by him:<\/p>\n in that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land<\/strong>; cut down the groves of trees, and destroyed the idols and images in them:<\/p>\n and hast prepared thine heart to seek God<\/strong>; through the grace of God his heart was disposed to serve and worship the Lord, and to seek his honour and glory.<\/p>\n (3) Nevertheless.<\/strong>Yet the Divine wrath will not pursue thee to destruction, for there are good things found in thee.<\/em> (So 2Ch. 12:12<\/span>; comp. also 1Ki. 14:13<\/span>.)<\/p>\n Thou hast taken away the groves.<\/strong>Thou hast consumed<\/em> (or exterminated<\/em> ) the Ashrahs.<\/em> (Deu. 13:6<\/span>; 2Ki. 23:24<\/span>.) So Asa had done (2Ch. 17:4<\/span>). (Ashrth,<\/em> as equivalent to Ashrm,<\/em> recurs in 2Ch. 33:3<\/span> and in Jdg. 3:7<\/span> only.)<\/p>\n And hast prepared.<\/strong>Or, directed.<\/em> The contrary was said of Rehoboam (2Ch. 12:14<\/span>.)<\/p>\n 3<\/strong>. <\/strong> Nevertheless <\/strong> The seer has for Jehoshaphat words of encouragement as well as words of blame, and reminds the king that in taking away the groves <\/strong> [the Asherah images, 1Ki 14:15<\/span>, note] he had shown the true theocratic spirit, which would not fail to be recognized and blessed of God. And this oracle of blame and of praise inspired the king to attempt further reforms.<\/p>\n 2Ch 19:3 Nevertheless there are good things found in thee, in that thou hast taken away the groves out of the land, and hast prepared thine heart to seek God.<\/p>\n Ver. 3. Nevertheless there are good things found in thee.<\/strong> ] Therefore God, rewarding his own graces in thee, will not suffer his whole wrath to arise against thee, but even in judgment remember mercy. Thus God “spareth” his people, “as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.” Mal 3:17 See Trapp on “<\/em> Mal 3:17 “<\/em> As for the good works we do, Certum est nos facere quod facimus, sed Deus facit ut faciamus; <\/em> He doeth all.<\/p>\n Nevertheless.
