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 Also he removed Maachah his grandmother from being queen mother, because she had made an obscene image of Asherah. And Asa cut down her obscene image and burned it by the Brook Kidron.

14 But the high places were not removed. Nevertheless Asa's heart was loyal to the Lord all his days.

15 He also brought into the house of the Lord the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which he himself had dedicated: silver and gold and utensils.
