Chronicles drew on other histories

C. F. Keil (1872); Ellicott's commentary

Chronicles supplements Kings from independent sources, and these details explain the later war with Israel. 2 Chronicles 25:6–16 [14][41]

A principle applied to history

E. Bertheau and O. Thenius (as reported by C. F. Keil and Ellicott, who reject it)

The idolatry was inferred from Amaziah's defeat rather than drawn from a record. 2 Chronicles 25:20 [13][41]

A known ancient policy

C. F. Keil (1872); W. E. Barnes (1899)

Conquerors sought to win over the gods of a conquered people; Solomon's shrines are an earlier example. 1 Kings 11:7 [13][149]
