2 Chronicles 14:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 14:4

And commanded Judah to seek the Lord God of their fathers
To pray to him, and him only, and attend his worship and service; this he did by a public edict:

and to do the law and the commandment:
to observe all the laws of God, moral, ceremonial, and civil.

2 Chronicles 14:4 In-Context

2 Asa did what was good and right from the perspective of ADONAI his God;
3 for he removed the foreign altars and the high places, smashing the standing-stones and chopping down the sacred poles.
4 He ordered Y'hudah to seek ADONAI, the God of their ancestors, and to obey the Torah and the mitzvah.
5 He removed the high places and pillars for sun-worship from all the cities of Y'hudah, and under him the kingdom was quiet.
6 Because the land was quiet, and he had no war during those years, since ADONAI had given him rest, he built fortified cities in Y'hudah.
