2 Kings 21:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 21:15

Because they have done that which was evil in my sight
Committed idolatry:

and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth
out of Egypt, even to this day;
being always prone to idolatry, so provoking to God, and which they were guilty of quickly after they came out of Egypt, in the worship of the golden calf, and had ever since at times been criminal this way; and now the measure of their iniquity being almost up, would be reckoned for together.

14 I will abandon the people who survive, and will hand them over to their enemies, who will conquer them and plunder their land.

15 I will do this to my people because they have sinned against me and have stirred up my anger from the time their ancestors came out of Egypt to this day."

16 Manasseh killed so many innocent people that the streets of Jerusalem were flowing with blood; he did this in addition to leading the people of Judah into idolatry, causing them to sin against the Lord.

17 Everything else that Manasseh did, including the sins he committed, is recorded in [The History of the Kings of Judah.]
