2 Chronicles 30:14 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 30:14

And they arose
Before they slew and ate the passover:

and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem;
which Ahaz had set up in every corner of Jerusalem, to offer sacrifices upon, ( 2 Chronicles 28:24 )

and all the altars for incense took they away;
for as there were some to offer sacrifices on, there were others to burn incense upon, not to the Lord, but to idols, as the Targum adds:

and cast them into the brook Kidron;
having reduced them to dust and ashes, see ( 2 Chronicles 29:16 ) .
