In the house of God with Obed-edom - From 1Ch 26:15 we learn that to Obed-edom and his descendants was allotted the keeping of the house of Asuppim or collections for the Divine treasury. And - the hostages - See on 2Ki 14:14 (note).

they saw one another in the face

on 2 Chronicles 25:21-24

The defeat at Beth-shemesh, the broken wall and the plundered temple parallel 2 Kings 14:11-14 in close detail, already carried in full there. Chronicles adds one note of its own, that the temple vessels taken were with Obed-edom, the family David had set as gatekeepers over the ark generations earlier, tying the temple's own guardians into a chapter about a king who stopped guarding his own worship. Judah breaks before Israel exactly as the prophet's silenced word had already said it would.

(2.) That he that goes forth hastily to strive will probably not know what to do in the end thereof, when his neighbour has put him to shame, Prov. xxv. He that is fond of contention may have enough of it sooner than he thinks of. But there are two passages in this story which we had not before in the Kings.
