Melachim Bais 17:22 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:22

For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam
which he did
They observed his injunction, not to go to Jerusalem to worship, and they worshipped the calves he did:

they departed not from them:
in all succeeding reigns, until the time of their captivity.

Melachim Bais 17:22 In-Context

20 And Hashem rejected all the zera Yisroel, afflicted them and delivered them into the yad of plunderers, until He had cast them out of His sight.
21 For He tore Yisroel from the Bais Dovid; and they made Yarov‘am Ben Nevat melech; and Yarov‘am drove Yisroel from following after Hashem, and caused them to commit a chata’ah gedolah.
22 For the Bnei Yisroel walked in all the chattot Yarov‘am which he did; they departed not from them;
23 Until Hashem removed Yisroel out of His sight, as He had said by all His avadim the Nevi’im. So was Yisroel carried away into the Golus out of their own adamah to Ashur (Assyria) unto this day.
24 And Melech Ashur brought men from Babylon, and from Kutah, and from Ava, and from Chamat, and from Sepharvayim, and placed them in the cities of Shomron in the place of Bnei Yisroel; and they possessed Shomron, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
