Divrey Hayamim Bais 17:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 17:4

But sought to the Lord God of his fathers
Prayed to him, worshipped and served him:

and walked in his commandments;
observed and kept them, moral, ceremonial, and judicial:

and not after the doings of Israel:
who worshipped the golden calves at Dan and Bethel.

Divrey Hayamim Bais 17:4 In-Context

2 And he placed troops in all the fortified cities of Yehudah, and set netzivim (garrisons) in Eretz Yehudah, and in the towns of Ephrayim, which Asa Aviv had captured.
3 And Hashem was with Yehoshaphat, because he walked in the darkhei Dovid Aviv harishonim, and sought not unto Ba’alim;
4 But sought Hashem Elohei Aviv, and walked in His mitzvot, and not after the ma’asei Yisroel.
5 Therefore Hashem established the Mamlachah in his yad; and all Yehudah brought to Yehoshaphat minchah; and he had osher and kavod in abundance.
6 And his lev was elevated in the darkhei Hashem; moreover he removed the high places and Asherim from Yehudah.
