1 Kings 22:44 In-Context

42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for twenty-five years. His mother's name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
43 Jehoshaphat was good, like his father Asa, and he did what the Lord said was right. But Jehoshaphat did not destroy the places where gods were worshiped, so the people continued offering sacrifices and burning incense there.
44 Jehoshaphat was at peace with the king of Israel.
45 Jehoshaphat fought many wars, and these wars and his successes are written in the book of the history of the kings of Judah.
46 There were male prostitutes still in the places of worship from the days of his father, Asa. So Jehoshaphat forced them to leave.
