Elisha Predicts Victory over Moab

4 Now Mesha, king of Moab, was a sheep-farmer; and he gave regularly to the king of Israel the wool from a hundred thousand lambs and a hundred thousand sheep.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Kings 3:4

Commentary on 2 Kings 3:1-5

(Read 2 Kings 3:1-5)

Jehoram took warning by God's judgment, and put away the image of Baal, yet he maintained the worship of the calves. Those do not truly repent or reform, who only part with the sins they lose by, but continue to love the sins that they think to gain by.
