1 Kings 15:15 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 15:15

And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated,
&c.] The spoils he had taken in war from Jeroboam, and which he had devoted to religious uses, but lived not to perform his vows, which his son now did for him; so that it seems, notwithstanding the sins he fell into, he had some regard to God and his worship, see ( 2 Chronicles 13:19 )

and the things which himself had dedicated;
out of the spoils taken from the Ethiopians, ( 2 Chronicles 14:13 2 Chronicles 14:14 ) , these he brought into the house of the Lord, silver, and gold, and vessels; of various sorts.

1 Kings 15:15 In-Context

13 And he would not let Maacah his mother be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had the image cut down and burned by the stream Kidron.

14 The high places, however, were not taken away: but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

15 He took into the house of the Lord all the things which his father had made holy, and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels.

17 And Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah, so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.
