2 Kings - 14:4 Meaning

“Howbeit the high places were not taken away: as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.”

King James Version (KJV)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

14:1-7 Amaziah began well, but did not go on so. It is not enough to do that which our pious predecessors did, merely to keep up the common usage, but we must do it as they did, from the same principle of faith and devotion, and with the same sincerity and resolution.

“And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.”
