As for the rest of the acts of Jotham
This phrase introduces a summary of Jotham's reign, suggesting that what follows is a mere glimpse of his deeds. The Hebrew word for "acts" is "ma'aseh," which often refers to deeds or works, emphasizing the tangible outcomes of Jotham's leadership. Jotham, the son of Uzziah, was known for his righteous reign, as he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord (2 Kings 15:34). His acts would have included both political and religious reforms, reflecting his commitment to God and his people.

along with all his accomplishments
The term "accomplishments" in Hebrew is "geburah," which can also mean "mighty deeds" or "strength." This highlights not just the quantity but the quality and impact of Jotham's reign. His accomplishments would have been significant in maintaining the stability and prosperity of Judah during a time of political upheaval in the region. Historically, Jotham's reign was marked by fortification projects and successful military campaigns, which are indicative of his strong leadership and strategic acumen.

are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
This rhetorical question points to a common practice in ancient Near Eastern cultures of recording the reigns of kings in official annals. The "Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah" is a historical record that, while not part of the biblical canon, served as a source for the authors of Kings and Chronicles. This phrase underscores the reliability and historical grounding of the biblical narrative, as it references external records that corroborate the biblical account. It also reflects the biblical theme of accountability, as the deeds of kings were documented for posterity, reminding readers that God is the ultimate judge of all human actions.

Verse 36. - Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did. The principal event of Jotham's reign was his war with Ammon. The writer of Chronicles says, "He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third" (2 Chronicles 27:5). Josephus ('Ant. Jud.,' 9:11. § 2) gives nearly the same account, but regards the payment as an annual tribute, intended to be permanent. Are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
