and next to him, Amasiah son of Zichri, the volunteer for the LORD, and with him 200,000 mighty men of valor.
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 17:162 voices
And next him was Amasiah the son of Zichri,.... He encamped next to him, as the Targum: who willingly offered himself unto the Lord; to fight the Lord's battles, and without any stipend, as some think; or, as Kimchi, he offered gold and silver to the treasures of the house of the Lord: and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour; the number was 80,000 less than the former; the whole of Judah amounted to 780,000 men.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
IT was a great thing for King Jehoshaphat to have such a pious lord-lieutenant, one who could command an army and, at the same time, obey the commands of God. Christian men ought greatly to value Christian servants, especially if such persons are employed in positions of trust. If we can have godly men to occupy our offices and transact our business, we should be very grateful and do our best to encourage and cheer them.
Charles Spurgeon· The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Sermon No. 2227: “Wanted!—Volunteers” (lightly modernized text, CCEL edition), 1891
