Bible Commentary for 1 Kings 20:24

Wesley's Notes for 1 Kings 20:24


20:24 Take the kings away - Who being of softer education, and lessexperienced in military matters, were less fit for service; and being manyof them but mercenaries, and therefore less concerned in his good success,would be more cautions in venturing themselves. Captains - That is,experienced soldiers of his own subjects, who would faithfully obey thecommands of the general (to which the kings would not so readily yield) anduse their utmost skill and valour for their own interest and advancement.
