2 Kings - 16:19 Meaning
“Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
16:17-20 Ahaz put contempt upon the sabbath, and thus opened a wide inlet to all manner of sin. This he did for the king of Assyria. When those who have had a ready passage to the house of the Lord, turn it another way to please their neighbours, they are going down-hill apace to ruin.
“Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.”
