2 Chronicles 21:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 21:13

And hast walked in the way of the kings of
Israel
Worshipping the calves, and even Baal, with other idols, as they did: and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring,
like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab;
meaning spiritual whoredoms or idolatries: and hast also slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which were
better than thyself;
more religious, more humane, more prudent, and fitter for government.

2 Chronicles 21:13 In-Context

11 Moreover he made high places in the hill country of Judah, and led the inhabitants of Jerusalem into unfaithfulness, and made Judah go astray.

12 And a letter came to him from Eli'jah the prophet, saying, "Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, 'Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehosh'aphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

13 but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have led Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem into unfaithfulness, as the house of Ahab led Israel into unfaithfulness, and also you have killed your brothers, of your father's house, who were better than yourself;

14 behold, the LORD will bring a great plague on your people, your children, your wives, and all your possessions,

15 and you yourself will have a severe sickness with a disease of your bowels, until your bowels come out because of the disease, day by day.'"
