19:4-11 In Jehoshaphat’s judicial reform, he appointed judges in the fortified towns (19:5) and in a central court in Jerusalem (19:8). He exhorted all the judges to think carefully, and to judge with integrity and in the fear of the Lord. This excluded acting with any partiality or taking of bribes, and included warning criminals not to sin against the Lord. The reform reestablished the law of Deuteronomy (Deut 16:18–17:13).
The words “you” and “your” in this verse refers to those persons Jehoshaphat appointed to be judges.
Connecting Statement:
Jehoshaphat continues to instruct some of the Levites and the priests, and some of the heads of the ancestral houses of Israel, who he appointed to be judges.
