the Lord . We have not abandoned the Lord; and we still serve him according to His own law. But what Abijah urged concerning the state of religion in Judah was not strictly just; and , as spoken by him , it favoured ostentation. Abijah himself was but an indifferent character; and idolatry was evidently connived at in his days. Yet it was true , that the men of Judah had the priests , ordinances , and worship of Jehovah among them; that there were numbers of pious worshippers in the land; that theirs was the more righteous cause; that Jehovah was on their side as their Captain , while Israel fought against him; and that the presence of the priests with the sacred trumpets was a token of His presence and favour. 2 Chronicles 11 . 16 , 2 Chronicles 11 . 17 , Exodus 19 . 5 , Exodus 19 . 6 , Zechariah 13 . 9
