**took away . . . the high places.** No "discrepancy" between this and [2 Chronicles 15:17](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/15/17) ; for the high places referred to there belonged to "Israel", not Judah. Asa could do nothing in Israel.
**images** = sun images.
**groves.** Hebrew. *'Asherim.* See note on [Exodus 34:13](../../../kjv/exodus/34/13) , and App-42 . See note on [Isaiah 17:8](../../../kjv/isaiah/17/8) .

**gates** = double doors.

**an army** = a force.

**mighty men.** Hebrew. *gibbor.* App-14 . belonging to Judah ( 2Ch 11:8 ; [2 Chronicles 14:9](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/14/9) ; [2 Chronicles 14:10](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/14/10) ; [2 Chronicles 20:37](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/20/37) . [Joshua 15:44](../../../kjv/joshua/15/44) ). [Micah 1:15](../../../kjv/micah/1/15) .

**Zephathah at.** Septuagint reads "Zaphonah, northward to".

**man** = mortal man. Hebrew. *'enosh.* App-14 .

**destroyed** = broken.
**His host** = His People's battles are His own ([1 Samuel 18:17](../../../kjv/1-samuel/18/17) ; [1 Samuel 25:28](../../../kjv/1-samuel/25/28) ).

**the fear of the LORD came.** Compare [2 Chronicles 17:10](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/17/10) ; [2 Chronicles 20:29](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/20/29) .
