2 Kings 14:3 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

He did ... as Joash - There is a curious parity between the lives of Joash and Amaziah. Both were zealous for Yahweh in the earlier portion of their reigns, but in the latter part fell away; both disregarded the rebukes of prophets; and both, having forsaken God, were in the end conspired against and slain (compare 2 Chronicles 24:25; 2 Chronicles 25:27).

2 Kings 14:3

3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.
