Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 30:10

"So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them." — 2 Chronicles 30:10 (ASV)

So the couriers passed—And the couriers were passing.

Even to Zebulun.—This tribe, which lay on the southern border of Naphtali, had suffered from Tiglath-pileser’s invasion (Isaiah 9:1). The messengers did not actually travel northward so far as Dan (2 Chronicles 30:5). This mention of Zebulun as the limit of their journey lends an air of historical truth to the account.

Laughed them to scorn.—Literally, and they were laughing at them (hish ̮ îq: here only), and making mock of them (Psalms 22:7). The verbs imply what the Israelites did continually. Vulgate, “cursores pergebant ... illis irridentibus et subsannantibus eos.”
