This site's exposition

made peace with the king

on 1 Kings 22:44-46

Jehoshaphat's peace with Israel closes the war thread the chapter opened with, and the record is filed to the chronicles of Judah as every reign in this book is filed. One reform is credited to him plainly: the remnant of the sodomites his father Asa had begun removing at 15:12 he finishes taking out of the land.

The record, by era

The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice

And all the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and all his might that he showed, and all his wars, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel? Many of them are recorded in the canonical book of Scripture, which bears the name of Chronicles; and more might be in this referred to, out of which might be taken what God has thought fit to transmit to future times; see 2Ch 17:1.
