In the house which is called by my name. — This had been done by Ahaz (2 Chronicles 28:2), and after the Temple had been cleansed by Hezekiah (2 Chronicles 29:5) had been repeated by Manasseh (2 Kings 21:4-7; 2 Chronicles 33:3-7). Josiah’s reformation again checked the tendency to idolatry (2 Kings 23:4; 2 Chronicles 34:3); but it is quite possible that the pendulum swung back again when his death left the idolatrous party in Judah free to act, and that this special aggravation of the evil, the desecration of the Temple of Jehovah by “abominations” of idol-worship, re-appeared together with the worship of the Queen of Heaven and the sacrifices to Molech.
