The name of Jehovah was exalted and held in honor, and the purpose for which the Israelites had been established in the Land of Promise bade fair of meeting with fulfillment. Barriers were broken down, and seekers after truth from the lands of the heathen were not turned away unsatisfied.

But as we fail to discover here any religious motive, we can only account for it on the score of altered political and social circumstances. So long as the people were, at least nominally, independent, and in possession of their own land, constant engagement in a trade would probably mark an inferior social stage, and imply <a href="//christianbookshelf.org/edersheim/sketches_of_jewish_social_life/chapter_12_commerce.htm" title="continued">…</a><br></span><span class="citation">Alfred Edersheim—</span><span class="citation2">Sketches of Jewish Social Life</span><p><span class="headingtext"><a href="//christianbookshelf.org/mcfadyen/introduction_to_the_old_testament/chronicles.htm">Chronicles</a><br></span><span class="snippet">The comparative indifference with which Chronicles is regarded in modern times by all but professional scholars seems to have been shared by the ancient Jewish church.
