Verse 2
2And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of the LORD. And the people did yet corruptly.
He did - He did according to all that his father Uzziah did; except in his miscarriages. We must not imitate those we have the greatest esteem for, any farther than we do well; but their failings must be warnings to us, to walk more circumspectly.
Verse 3
3He built the high gate of the house of the LORD, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
Built - Repaired it: for it was built before, chap.11:5.
