2 Chronicles 13:11 Commentary - English Annotations on the Holy Bible by Matthew Poole
The pure table; so called, because it was made of pure gold, Exo 25:23,24.
The candlestick; he saith table and candlestick, though there were ten of each, 2Ch 4:7,8; either,
1. Because Shishak had carried away all but one. Or,
2. The singular number is put for the plural, as 1Ki 7:48, and oft elsewhere. Or,
3. Because ordinarily there was but one of each used at a time for those uses.
To burn every evening; and from evening to morning continually, Lev 24:2,3; for which end one candlestick was sufficient, and it is very improbable that all the candlesticks were used every night.
We keep the charge of the Lord our God: this he saith, though he was an ungodly king; either because he flattered himself and fancied that his keeping up the external worship of God would make full satisfaction for the errors of his life; or that he might hereby encourage his own soldiers, and convince or terrify his enemies.

English Annotations on the Holy Bible by Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole (1624–1679) wrote English Annotations on the Holy Bible, completing the chapters as far as Isaiah 58 before his death in 1679. The rest of the Annotations were completed by friends and colleagues among his Nonconformist brethren. The first printing of the completed edition was in 1685, 2 volumes folio, followed by editions in 1688, 1696 (with valuable chapter outlines added by the editors, Samuel Clark and Edward Veale), and the 4th and definitive edition in 1700, the basis of all others.
