2 Kings 21:18 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Kings 21:18

16 ^aMoreover Manasseh shed very much innocent blood, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another, besides his sin by which he made Judah sin, in doing evil in the sight of the Lord.

17 Now ^athe rest of the acts of ^bManasseh—all that he did, and the sin that he committed—are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

18 So ^aManasseh rested with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. Then his son Amon reigned in his place.

Amon’s Reign and Death

19 ^aAmon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

20 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, ^aas his father Manasseh had done.

21 So he walked in all the ways that his father had walked; and he served the idols that his father had served, and worshiped them.

22 He ^aforsook the Lord God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of the Lord.
