Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - Thou hast indeed smitten Edom (see ver. 7, and the comment), and thine heart hath lifted thee up - i.e., made thee proud, exalted thee above measure - glory of this, and tarry at home - i.e., rest content with the glory which thou hast gained in thy Edomite war; make thy boast thereof, but do not affront fresh dangers - for why shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt - literally, why wilt thou meddle with misfortune? - that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee? Joash was as confident of success, if it came to war, as Amaziah. His three victories over Syria (2 Kings 13:25) were, he thought, at least as good evidence of military strength as Amaziah's one victory over Edom.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) Thou hast indeed smitten--i.e., thou hast thoroughly worsted; gained a brilliant victory over Edom. (The "indeed" qualifies "smitten.")Hath lifted.--Rather, lifteth.Glory of this, and tarry at home.--Literally, be honoured, and abide in thine own house, i.e., be content with the glory thou hast achieved. Rest on thy laurels, and do not risk them by further enterprises which may not turn out so favourably. So the Vulg. Thenius explains: "Show thy might at home," referring to the LXX. (Comp. 2Samuel 6:20).For why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt?--Rather, and why shouldst thou challenge or provoke (literally, attack, Deuteronomy 2:5) disaster?
