2 Chronicles 22:3 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 22:3

He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab
As his father Jehoram had, ( 2 Chronicles 21:6 ) ( 2 Kings 8:27 )

to commit idolatry, who was of that idolatrous house.

2 Chronicles 22:3 In-Context

1 And the people of Jerusalem made Ahaziah, his youngest son, king in his place, for the band of men who came with the Arabians to the army had put all the older sons to death. So Ahaziah, the son of Jehoram, became king.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri.
3 He went in the ways of the family of Ahab, for his mother was his teacher in evil-doing.
4 And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the family of Ahab did; for after the death of his father they were his guides to his destruction.
5 Acting on their suggestion, he went with Jehoram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, to make war on Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead: and Joram was wounded by the bowmen.
