17:5-6 The word translated gifts is usually translated “tribute,” such as conquering kings required of their vassals (e.g., Judg 3:15-18), but forced tribute is hardly the sense intended here. The people of Judah voluntarily made Jehoshaphat very wealthy. As with Uzziah (2 Chr 26:16) and Hezekiah (32:25), riches often result in pride. However, Jehoshaphat was deeply committed to the ways of the Lord. He was not proud of his own achievements; instead, his courage led him to remove idolatrous worship from the kingdom. Jehoshaphat established control within his kingdom by practicing righteousness and faithfulness to God.
