1 Reis 15:14

14 Os altos, porém, não foram tirados; todavia o coração de Asa foi reto para com o Senhor todos os seus dias.

1 Reis 15:14 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:14

But the high places were not removed
That is, such as had been used for the worship of God, before the temple was built, which yet now should have been removed, since sacrifice was now only to be offered there; but he might think they were still lawful, or the people had such an opinion of them, that it was difficult and dangerous to attempt to remove them; otherwise high places for idolatry were removed by him, ( 2 Chronicles 14:3 ) ,

nevertheless, Asa's heart was perfect all his days;
he was sincere in the worship of God, and did everything to the best of his knowledge and capacity for restoring true religion, and destroying idolatry.

1 Reis 15:14 In-Context

12 Porque tirou da terra os sodomitas, e removeu todos os ídolos que seus pais tinham feito.
13 E até a Maacá, sua mãe, removeu para que não fosse rainha, porquanto tinha feito um abominável ídolo para servir de Asera; e Asa desfez esse ídolo, e o queimou junto ao ribeiro de Cedrom.
14 Os altos, porém, não foram tirados; todavia o coração de Asa foi reto para com o Senhor todos os seus dias.
15 E trouxe para a casa do Senhor as coisas que seu pai havia consagrado, e as coisas que ele mesmo consagrara: prata, ouro e vasos.
16 Ora, houve guerra entre Asa e Baasa, rei de Israel, todos os seus dias.
