"And king Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel." — 2 Kings 3:6 (ASV)
The same time. —Literally, in that day; which, in Hebrew, is a much less definite phrase than in English. The time intended is that when the Moabite refusal of tribute was received by Jehoram, who, on his accession, would demand it afresh.
Numbered. — Mustered, made a levy of.
