2 Chronicles 29:8 Summary

This verse is saying that because the people of Judah and Jerusalem disobeyed God and turned their backs on Him, He was very angry with them and allowed them to be defeated and ridiculed by their enemies, as seen in 2 Chronicles 29:9. This is a reminder that our actions have consequences, and that God takes sin very seriously, as seen in Romans 6:23. However, it's also important to remember that God is a God of love and mercy, and that He wants to forgive us and restore us to Himself, as seen in 2 Chronicles 29:10 and Psalm 103:8-10.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean for the wrath of the LORD to fall upon a people?

The wrath of the LORD refers to His righteous judgment and discipline, as seen in Deuteronomy 29:27, where God's wrath is poured out on those who disobey Him. In the context of 2 Chronicles 29:8, it means that God's judgment has come upon Judah and Jerusalem due to their sin and disobedience.

Why did God make Judah and Jerusalem an object of terror, horror, and mockery?

God made them an object of terror, horror, and mockery because of their persistent sin and rebellion against Him, as mentioned in 2 Chronicles 29:6-7, where they abandoned the LORD and turned their backs on Him. This is also seen in Proverbs 14:34, where it says that sin is a reproach to any people.

Is God's wrath still relevant today?

Yes, God's wrath is still relevant today, as seen in Romans 1:18, where it says that the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men. However, as believers, we can take comfort in the fact that God's wrath was poured out on Jesus Christ at the cross, as seen in Isaiah 53:10, and that we can be reconciled to God through faith in Him.

How can we avoid experiencing God's wrath in our own lives?

We can avoid experiencing God's wrath by repenting of our sins, turning to God, and seeking to obey Him, as seen in 2 Chronicles 29:10, where King Hezekiah makes a covenant with the LORD to turn away His fierce anger. This is also echoed in 1 John 1:9, where it says that if we confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Reflection Questions

  1. What are some ways that I have turned my back on God, and how can I repent and turn to Him?
  2. In what ways have I experienced the consequences of sin in my own life, and how can I learn from these experiences to avoid similar situations in the future?
  3. How can I balance the concept of God's wrath with His love and mercy, as seen in John 3:16 and Romans 5:8?
  4. What are some practical steps I can take to ensure that I am not contributing to the sin and rebellion that can bring about God's wrath, as seen in 2 Chronicles 29:6-7?

Trapp's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:8

2 Chronicles 29:8 Wherefore the wrath of the LORD was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, to astonishment, and to hissing, as ye see with your eyes.Ver. 8. And he hath delivered them to trouble.] Heb., To commotion, so that they are scattered hither and thither, ut fit incursionibus Turcicis, as it falleth out wherever the great Turk setteth his foot.

Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:8

(8) The wrath . . . was (i.e., fell) upon Judah.—The phrase of 2 Chronicles 24:18. (Comp. 2 Chronicles 19:2; 2 Chronicles 19:10.) Delivered them to trouble . . .—Rather, made them a horror, an astonishment, and a hissing. The language is Deuteronomic. (Comp. Deuteronomy 28:25; Deuteronomy 28:37 : “Thou shalt become a horror . . . an astonishment.” Jeremiah 25:9; Jeremiah 25:18 : “I will make them an astonishment and a hissing,” et al.) As ye see with your (own) eyes.—For ye behold the disastrous results of the invasions of Aram and Israel, of Edom and the Philistines, and of the appeal to Assyria (2 Chronicles 28).

Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:8

Verse 8. He hath delivered them to trouble, to astonishment] He probably refers here chiefly to that dreadful defeat by the Israelites in which a hundred and twenty thousand were slain, and two hundred thousand taken prisoners; see the preceding chapter, 2 Chronicles 28:6; 2 Chronicles 28:8.

Cambridge Bible on 2 Chronicles 29:8

8. to trouble, to astonishment, and to hissing] R.V. to be tossed to and fro, to be an astonishment, and an hissing. to trouble] Better as R.V. mg., to be a terror (or “cause of trembling”). The judgement on Israel fills the surrounding nations with trembling for themselves. The rendering of R.V. text “tossed to and fro” is inferior because the Heb. word describes “trembling” and not “motion from place to place.”

Barnes' Notes on 2 Chronicles 29:8

He hath delivered them to ... hissing - See 1 Kings 9:8 note.

Whedon's Commentary on 2 Chronicles 29:8

8. The wrath of the Lord was upon Judah — The afflictions which are mentioned in this verse and the following were those which Judah suffered under the reign of Ahaz, and which are described in the previous chapter.
