2 Kings 23:32 - Exposition

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord (see the comment on 2 Kings 23:31-33 ). Josephus says that he was ἀσεβὴς καὶ μιαρὸς τὸν τρόπον ( l. s. c. )—"irreligious and of impure habits." Ezekiel ( Ezekiel 19:3 ) seems to call him a persecutor. According to all that his fathers had done. As idolatry was the chief sin of his "fathers," Jehoahaz must have been an idolater.
