Commentary on 2 Kings 10:26

Theological / Devotional

Images. Hebrew masseboth, “pillars.” In those days sacred pillars were common in Palestine. They are thought to have been masculine symbols of fertility. The Hebrews were commanded to destroy such pillars (Exodus 23:24; 34:13), and were forbidden to erect any “grove” (symbol of the goddess Asherah) or set any pillar near an altar to the Lord (see on Deuteronomy 16:21, 22).
