Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)

So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem,.... By the order of Asa, 2Ch 15:9, in the third month; of the ecclesiastical year, the month Sivan, in which month was the day of Pentecost; and that very probably was the time of their gathering: in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa; and which seems to be the year in which he fought the Ethiopians.
