2 CHRONICLES 13:4 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel;”
And Abijah stood up on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, 'Hear me, O Jeroboam and all Israel — Abijah positioned himself on Mount Zemaraim (בְהַר־צְמָרַיִם) in Ephraim's hill country and addressed Jeroboam and 'all Israel' (שִׁמְעוּ אֵלַי יָרָבְעָם וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל). The hilltop location ensured visibility and audibility. Abijah's speech becomes the theological heart of chapter 13.
