The "evil" refers to actions contrary to God's commandments, often involving idolatry and injustice. In the context of 2 Kings, this phrase is frequently used to describe the kings of Israel and Judah who failed to uphold the covenant with God. The "sight of the LORD" underscores God's omniscience and the accountability of leaders to divine standards.and did not turn away from all the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit Jeroboam, the first king of the northern kingdom of Israel, established a pattern of idolatry by setting up golden calves in Bethel and Dan (<a href="/1_kings/12-28.htm">1 Kings 12:28-30</a>). This act was a direct violation of the first two commandments and led Israel into sin. The phrase "did not turn away" indicates a stubborn persistence in these sinful practices, highlighting the failure of subsequent kings to repent and lead the nation back to true worship. This continuity of sin reflects the deep-rooted nature of idolatry and its pervasive influence on the nation.but he walked in them "Walked in them" is a metaphor for living according to a particular set of beliefs or practices. In this context, it signifies the king's active participation and endorsement of Jeroboam's idolatrous practices. This phrase suggests a deliberate choice to follow a path contrary to God's will, reinforcing the idea of personal and national responsibility. The use of "walked" implies a lifestyle or habitual conduct, indicating that the king's reign was characterized by these sins. This continued disobedience serves as a warning of the consequences of straying from God's commandments and the importance of righteous leadership.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/j/jehoahaz.htm">Jehoahaz</a> The king of Israel who followed in the sinful ways of Jeroboam, leading the nation into idolatry and disobedience to God. 2. <a href="/topical/j/jeroboam_son_of_nebat.htm">Jeroboam son of Nebat</a> The first king of the northern kingdom of Israel who set up golden calves in Bethel and Dan, leading Israel into idolatry. 3. <a href="/topical/i/israel.htm">Israel</a> The northern kingdom, which was often led astray by its kings into idolatry and sin, as seen in the reign of Jehoahaz. 4. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD</a> The God of Israel, who consistently called His people to repentance and faithfulness, yet they often turned away. 5. <a href="/topical/i/idolatry.htm">Idolatry</a> The worship of idols, which was a recurring sin in Israel, leading to their downfall and judgment by God.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/t/the_consequences_of_sinful_leadership.htm">The Consequences of Sinful Leadership</a> Leaders have a profound impact on the spiritual direction of a nation.

Josephus says that Joash was a good king, and quite unlike his father in disposition ('Ant. Jud.,' l.s.c.); but he is not likely to have had any independent data for judging of his character. Our author seems to include both son and father in the same category (comp. ver. 2).
