◄ 1 Kings 22:46 ►
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers
(46) The remnant . . .--See 1 Kings 14:24; 1 Kings 15:12.

Pulpit Commentary
Verse 46. - And the remnant of the Sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa [It appears hence that Asa's removal of the religious prostitutes (1 Kings 15:12), like that of the high places, had been but partial], he took [Heb. exterminated] out of the land.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
22:41-50 Jehoshaphat's reign appears to have been one of the best, both as to piety and prosperity. He pleased God, and God blessed him.
Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
And the remnant of the Sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land. His father Asa removed many of these filthy creatures, but not all; as many, no doubt, as came within his knowledge, but some remained, whom this his son removed, being of the same disposition with his father, see 1 Kings 15:12.
