Bible reading: 2
Chronicles 27
The people did
corruptly. Perhaps Jotham was wanting towards the reformation of
the land.
Men may be very good, and yet not have courage and zeal to do what
they might. It certainly casts blame upon the people.
Jotham prospered, and became mighty.
The more stedfast we are in religion, the more mighty we are, both
to resist evil, and to do good. The Lord often removes wise and
pious rulers, and sends others, whose follies and vices punish a
people that valued not their mercies.
