Commentary on Isaiah 2:8

Theological / Devotional

Full of idols. The reign of Ahaz was characterized by a great moral decline in which king and people forsook the true God and turned to the worship of idols. Images were made to Baal (see Vol. I, p. 173), human sacrifices were offered to heathen gods, altars were erected throughout Jerusalem, high places for the burning of incense to idols were dedicated throughout the land, and a heathen altar was erected in the Temple court, where Solomon’s brazen altar had stood (2 Chron. 28:2-4, 23-25; 2 Kings 16:10-14).
