2 Re 16:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 16:2

Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned
sixteen years in Jerusalem
The same number of years his father did:

and did not that which was right in the sight of the Lord God, like
David his father;
his more remote progenitor, nor even like his more immediate father, from whom he received such good instructions, and of whom he had so good an example; but grace is neither propagated by blood, nor obtained through the force of education.

2 Re 16:2 In-Context

1 L’ANNO diciassettesimo di Peca, figliuolo di Remalia, Achaz, figliuolo di Iotam, re di Giuda, cominciò a regnare.
2 Achaz era d’età di vent’anni, quando cominciò a regnare; e regnò sedici anni in Gerusalemme; e non fece quello che piace al Signore Iddio suo, come avea fatto Davide, suo padre.
3 Ma camminò per la via dei re d’Israele, e fece anche passare il suo figliuolo per lo fuoco, secondo le abbominazioni delle genti, le quali il Signore avea scacciate d’innanzi a’ figliuoli d’Israele.
4 E sacrificava, e faceva profumi negli alti luoghi, e sopra i colli, e sotto ogni albero verdeggiante.
5 Allora Resin, re di Siria, e Peca, figliuolo di Remalia, re d’Israele, salirono in armi contro a Gerusalemme, ed assediarono Achaz; ma non poterono espugnar la città.
