2 Chronicles17:7
7 Also in the third year of his reign, he sent to his princes, even to Ben-hail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah; and to Nethaneel, and to Michajah, to teach in the cities of Judah.
To inform the People of their Duty and of the Kings Pleasure. As Judges or Justices of Peace teach or instruct the People in the Laws of the Land when they deliver their Charges upon the Bench, so did these Princes in the Kings Name admonish and require the People to observe and obey the Laws of God, which were the Municipal Laws of that Land: The particular Explication and Inforcement whereof they left to the Levites and Priests here following, who were sent for this End, and accordingly taught the People, v. 9.
