2 Kings17:2
2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him .
For he neither worshipped Baal, as many of his predecessors did; nor compelled the People to worship the Calves; one of them, that of Dan, being destroyed, or carried away before, as the Hebrew Writers affirm; nor, as some add, hindred those by force, who were minded to go to Ierusalem to worship. And yet, the measure of the Israelites sins, being now full, vengeance comes upon them without remedy; Compare 2 Kings 23. 26.
