2 Kings 15:24

And he did that which was evil
Besides other sins, he cleaved to that of worshipping the calves, a piece of state policy all the kings of Israel gave into.

Melachim Bais 15:24 In-Context

22 And Menahem slept with his avot; and Pekachyah bno reigned as melech in his place.
23 In the fiftieth year of Azaryah Melech Yehudah, Pekachyah Ben Menahem began to reign as melech over Yisroel in Shomron, and reigned two shanim.
24 And he did that which was rah in the eyes of Hashem; he departed not from the chattot Yarov‘am Ben Nevat, who caused Yisroel to commit sin.
25 But Pekach Ben Remalyah, his officer, plotted a kesher against him, and assassinated him in Shomron, in the armon Bais Melech (citadel of the palace of the king), with Argov and Aryeh, and with him chamishim ish (fifty men) of the Bnei Gil’adim; and he killed him, and reigned as melech in his place.
26 And the rest of the acts of Pekachyah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L’Malkhei Yisroel.
