Commentary on 2 Chronicles 25:2

Theological / Devotional

But not with a perfect heart. “Yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did” (2 Kings 14:3). Of both Joash (2 Chron. 24:2) and Amaziah it is said that they did “that which was right in the sight of the Lord,” but neither of these kings was wholehearted in his service, at least not during his entire reign. Each portrayed outstanding weaknesses and had to pay the penalty for his shortcomings. The failure of Amaziah to remove the high places is not mentioned (cf. 2 Kings 14:4).
