2 Kings21:7
7 And he set a graven image of the grove that he had made, in the house of which the LORD said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name for ever.
Either, First, The Image of that Baal which was worshipped in the Grove. Or, Secondly, A representation of the Grove, as may seem by comparing chap. 23. 6. Or, Thirdly, The Graven Image of Asherah, a god or goddess so called, possibly the same called elsewhere Ashtaroth. See Iudg. 6. 25, 28. 2 King. 23. 6. 2 Chron. 15. 16.
