Commentary on 2 Kings 21:9

Theological / Devotional

Than did the nations. The heathen inhabitants of Palestine were destroyed because of their debasing practices, but now the professed people of God had sunk so low that they surpassed the heathen in their corrupt and abominable worship. Immorality, cruelty, and oppression went hand in hand with the degradation of religion. The terrible sin of Judah lay in the fact that they forsook their own pure form of religion and the one true God for the most corrupt forms of worship and the most debased types of idolatry.
