Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(23) From heaven.--In Kings we have not the preposition. Perhaps the meaning there is "to heaven," as in 2Chronicles 6:30. The chronicler has substituted a more ordinary expression, which, indeed, is found in all the versions of Kings. Similarly in 2Chronicles 6:25; 2Chronicles 6:30; 2Chronicles 6:33; 2Chronicles 6:35; 2Chronicles 6:39. . . .
