In the context of ancient Israel, being designated by name implies a sense of responsibility and authority. This reflects the importance of leadership and accountability in biblical narratives, where God often appoints individuals for specific missions.<p><b>took charge of the captives</b><br>The captives here refer to the people of Judah who were taken by the Israelites during the conflict. This act of taking charge signifies a shift from hostility to compassion, highlighting a moment of repentance and obedience to prophetic instruction, as the prophet Oded had earlier admonished the Israelites to release their captives.<p><b>and provided from the plunder clothing for the naked</b><br>Providing clothing from the plunder demonstrates a reversal of fortune and a gesture of mercy. In biblical times, clothing was a basic necessity and a symbol of dignity. This act fulfills the biblical principle of caring for the needy, as seen in passages like <a href="/isaiah/58-7.htm">Isaiah 58:7</a>, which calls for sharing with those in need.<p><b>They clothed them, gave them sandals and food and drink</b><br>This comprehensive care for the captives reflects the holistic approach to restoration and mercy. Sandals, food, and drink were essential for survival and comfort, especially for those who had been through the trauma of captivity. This mirrors the biblical theme of hospitality and provision, akin to the Good Samaritan parable in <a href="/luke/10-33.htm">Luke 10:33-34</a>.<p><b>anointed their wounds</b><br>Anointing wounds with oil was a common ancient practice for healing and soothing injuries. This act of compassion and care is reminiscent of the healing ministry of Jesus, who often tended to the physical and spiritual needs of individuals, as seen in <a href="/matthew/9-35.htm">Matthew 9:35</a>.<p><b>and put all the feeble on donkeys</b><br>Providing transportation for the weak demonstrates a concern for the well-being of the vulnerable. Donkeys were valuable animals for travel, indicating a significant effort to ensure the captives' safe and comfortable return. This act of kindness aligns with the biblical call to support the weak, as seen in <a href="/1_thessalonians/5-14.htm">1 Thessalonians 5:14</a>.<p><b>So they brought them to Jericho, the City of Palms, to their brothers</b><br>Jericho, known as the City of Palms, was a significant location in Israel's history, symbolizing a place of refuge and rest. Bringing the captives to their brothers in Jericho signifies reconciliation and the restoration of community ties. This act fulfills the biblical mandate of unity and peace among God's people, as emphasized in <a href="/psalms/133.htm">Psalm 133:1</a>.<p><b>Then they returned to Samaria</b><br>The return to Samaria marks the completion of their mission and a return to normalcy. Samaria, the capital of the Northern Kingdom, was often at odds with Judah, yet this act of mercy and obedience to God's command through the prophet Oded represents a moment of unity and repentance. This reflects the biblical theme of reconciliation and the hope for peace among divided peoples, as seen in <a href="/ephesians/2-14.htm">Ephesians 2:14-16</a>.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_men_designated_by_name.htm">The Men Designated by Name</a></b><br>These were leaders or notable men chosen for a specific task of mercy and restoration.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_captives.htm">The Captives</a></b><br>These were Israelites taken captive by the men of Judah during the reign of King Ahaz.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_spoil.htm">The Spoil</a></b><br>Goods taken during the conflict, used here to provide for the captives.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/j/jericho,_the_city_of_palms.htm">Jericho, the City of Palms</a></b><br>A significant city in Israel, known for its palm trees, where the captives were brought.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/s/samaria.htm">Samaria</a></b><br>The capital of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, where the men returned after their act of mercy.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/c/compassion_in_action.htm">Compassion in Action</a></b><br>The men designated by name exemplify how believers should respond to those in need, using their resources to restore dignity and provide for others.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/restoration_and_reconciliation.htm">Restoration and Reconciliation</a></b><br>The act of leading the captives back to Jericho symbolizes a commitment to reconciliation and healing within the community of God's people.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/o/obedience_to_god's_commands.htm">Obedience to God's Commands</a></b><br>This event underscores the importance of obeying God's commands to love and care for others, even in the midst of conflict.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/community_responsibility.htm">Community Responsibility</a></b><br>The passage highlights the role of community leaders in setting an example of mercy and justice, encouraging others to follow suit.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/p/practical_mercy.htm">Practical Mercy</a></b><br>The detailed care given to the captives&#8212;clothing, feeding, anointing, and transporting them&#8212;demonstrates the comprehensive nature of true mercy.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_2_chronicles_28.htm">Top 10 Lessons from 2 Chronicles 28</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/are_2_chronicles_28_events_verifiable.htm">Are the large-scale military defeats and deportations in 2 Chronicles 28 verifiable through existing sources?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/who_was_king_pekah_in_the_bible.htm">Who was King Pekah in the Bible?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_to_reconcile_manasseh's_repentance.htm">How do we reconcile Manasseh's repentance in 2 Chronicles 33:13 with 2 Kings 21, which does not mention his conversion or release from captivity at all?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_did_baasha_attack_judah_after_his_death.htm">How can 2 Chronicles 16:1 claim Baasha attacked Judah in Asa's thirty-sixth year if 1 Kings 15:33 indicates Baasha died years earlier?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/2_chronicles/28.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(15) <span class= "bld">The men which . . . by name.</span>--<a href="/1_chronicles/12-31.htm" title="And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, which were expressed by name, to come and make David king.">1Chronicles 12:31</a>; <a href="/1_chronicles/16-41.htm" title="And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his mercy endures for ever;">1Chronicles 16:41</a>.
