Gill's Notes on the Bible
And these are the numbers of them, according to the house of their fathers,.... Both of the tribe of Judah and of Benjamin: and first
of Judah, the captains of thousands; some had 1000 men under them, and some one hundred:
Adnah the chief; he was the principal commander or general of them:
and with him mighty men of valour, three hundred thousand; such a number was under his command.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The captains of thousands; Adnah the chief - literally, âprinces of thousands, Adnah the prince.â The writer does not mean that Adnah (or Johohanan, 2 Chronicles 17:15) was in any way superior to the other âprinces,â but only that he was one of them.
Three hundred thousand - This number. and those which follow in 2 Chronicles 17:15-18, have been with good reason regarded as corrupt by most critics. For:
(1) They imply a minimum population of 1,480 to the square mile, which is more than three times greater than that of any country in the known world (circa 1880âs).
(2) they produce a total just double that of the next largest estimate of the military force of Judah, the 580, 000 of 2 Chronicles 14:8.
(3) they are professedly a statement, not of the whole military force, but of the force maintained at Jerusalem (2 Chronicles 17:13; compare 2 Chronicles 17:19).
It is probable that the original numbers have been lost, and that the loss was suppplied by a scribe, who took 2 Chronicles 14:8 as his basis.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 17:14. Adnah, the chief — He was generalissimo of all this host. These are the numbers of the five battalions: under Adnah, three hundred thousand; Jehohanan, two hundred and eighty thousand, Amasiah, two hundred thousand; Eliada, two hundred thousand; Jehozabad, one hundred and eighty thousand; in all, one million one hundred and sixty thousand.
