SCRIPTURE

"But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying," — 2 Chronicles 11:2 (ASV)

The Lord. —Kings has “God” twice. The chronicler does not always avoid the name Jehovah.

Shemaiah. —So Kings. The chronicler writes the longer form, Shemayâhu; and so Ahiyâhu in 2 Chronicles 10:15.
