2 Chronicles 12:9-11
Summary for 2Chr 12:9-11: 12:9-11 a The looting of the royal treasuries and of the Temple were the punishment Rehoboam received for his disobedience. The gold shields were ritually carried by the guard accompanying the king when he moved from the palace to the Temple. The royal processionals lost much of their splendor with the bronze shields (cp. 9:15-16 b), which were safely stored in the huge armory Solomon had built (8:6 c).
