31 But Jehu didn't wholeheartedly obey the teachings of the LORD God of Israel. He didn't turn away from the sins that Jeroboam led Israel to commit.

2 Kings 10:31 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 10:31

But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of
Israel with all his heart
As to his moral conversation, he was not careful that it was according to the law of God, and what he did agreeable to it, it was not sincerely, and from the right principle:

for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to
sin;
which he would, if he had had a cordial respect to all the commandments of the law.

2 Kings 10:31 In-Context

29 But Jehu did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam (Nebat's son) led Israel to commit--[the worship of] the golden calves that were at Bethel and Dan.
30 The LORD said to Jehu, "You did what I consider right, and you did it well. You did everything I wanted done to Ahab's family. That is why four generations of your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel."
31 But Jehu didn't wholeheartedly obey the teachings of the LORD God of Israel. He didn't turn away from the sins that Jeroboam led Israel to commit.
32 So in those days the LORD began to take away some of Israel's territory. Hazael defeated Jehu's army throughout Israel's territory
33 east of the Jordan River: the entire region of Gilead (the territory belonging to Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh) from Aroer, which is near the Arnon River, to Gilead and Bashan.
