2 Kings 17:16 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Kings 17:16

14 Nevertheless they would not hear, but ^astiffened their necks, like the necks of their fathers, who ^bdid not believe in the Lord their God.

15 And they ^arejected His statutes ^band His covenant that He had made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He had testified against them; they followed ^cidols, ^dbecame idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them, concerning whom the Lord had charged them that they should ^enot do like them.

16 So they left all the commandments of the Lord their God, ^amade for themselves a molded image and two calves, ^bmade a wooden image and worshiped all the ^chost of heaven, ^dand served Baal.

17 ^aAnd they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, ^bpracticed witchcraft and soothsaying, and ^csold themselves to do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger.

18 Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them from His sight; there was none left ^abut the tribe of Judah alone.
