Wesley's Notes for 1 Kings 15:21

15:21 Tirzah - Now the royal city of Israel. There he abode todefend his own kingdoms, and durst not return to oppose Asa, lest theSyrian king should make a second invasion. So Asa met with successin this ungodly course as good men sometimes meet with disappointment ina good cause and course. So there is no judging of causes by events.
