2 Chronicles 33:21 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 33:21

(See Gill on 2 Chronicles 33:20)

Taken from John Gill's Exposition of the Bible

2 Chronicles 33:21 In-Context

19 His prayer and how God was moved by his entreaty, as well as all his sins and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself—all these are written in the records of the seers.
20 Manasseh rested with his ancestors and was buried in his palace. And Amon his son succeeded him as king.
21 Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.
22 He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped and offered sacrifices to all the idols Manasseh had made.
23 But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble himself before the LORD; Amon increased his guilt.
