"And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem." — 2 Chronicles 19:1 (ASV)

Jehoshaphat ... returned to his house in peace. —A contrast with the fate of Ahab is suggested. (Compare 2 Chronicles 18:27; 2 Chronicles 18:34; and 2 Chronicles 18:16.)

In peace. —In wholeness, soundness, i.e., unhurt.
