Clarke's 2-chronicles 16:10 Bible Commentary
Asa was wroth with the seer - Instead of humbling himself, and deprecating the displeasure of the Lord, he persecuted his messenger: and having thus laid his impious hands upon the prophet, he appears to have got his heart hardened through the deceitfulness of sin; and then he began to oppress the people, either by unjust imprisonments, or excessive taxations.
Barnes's 2-chronicles 16:10 Bible Commentary
In a prison house - Or, "in the stocks." Compare 1 Kings 22:26-27.
