1Asa's son Jehoshaphat was the next king; he started out by working on his defense system against Israel.

2He put troops in all the fortress cities of Judah and deployed garrisons throughout Judah and in the towns of Ephraim that his father Asa had captured.

3GOD was on Jehoshaphat's side because he stuck to the ways of his father Asa's early years. He didn't fool around with the popular Baal religion--

4he was a seeker and follower of the God of his father and was obedient to him; he wasn't like Israel.

5And GOD secured the kingdom under his rule, gave him a firm grip on it. And everyone in Judah showed their appreciation by bringing gifts. Jehoshaphat ended up very rich and much honored.

6He was single-minded in following GOD; and he got rid of the local sex-and-religion shrines.

7In the third year of his reign he sent his officials--excellent men, every one of them--Ben-Hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah on a teaching mission to the cities of Judah.

8They were accompanied by Levites--Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah; the priests Elishama and Jehoram were also in the company.

9They made a circuit of the towns of Judah, teaching the people and using the Book of The Revelation of GOD as their text.

10There was a strong sense of the fear of GOD in all the kingdoms around Judah--they didn't dare go to war against Jehoshaphat.

11Some Philistines even brought gifts and a load of silver to Jehoshaphat, and the desert bedouin brought flocks--7,700 rams and 7,700 goats.

12So Jehoshaphat became stronger by the day, and constructed more and more forts and store-cities--an age of prosperity for Judah!

13He also had excellent fighting men stationed in Jerusalem.

14The captains of the military units of Judah, classified according to families, were: Captain Adnah with 300,000 soldiers;

15his associate Captain Jehohanan with 280,000;

16his associate Amasiah son of Zicri, a volunteer for GOD, with 200,000.

17Officer Eliada represented Benjamin with 200,000 fully equipped with bow and shield;

18and his associate was Jehozabad with 180,000 armed and ready for battle.

19These were under the direct command of the king; in addition there were the troops assigned to the fortress cities spread all over Judah.
