II Chronicles 21:16 And the Lord stirred up against Joram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who border on the Ethiopians.

Philistines; who, it seems, had been obedient since the days of David. --- Ethiopians, who lay west of the Arabians, from the Red Sea to the lower Egypt and the Nile, (Calmet) bordering on Madian. There was another Ethiopia to the south of Egypt. (Menochius)
