14:3-4 While Amaziah’s basic spiritual evaluation was satisfactory, he did not serve the Lord wholeheartedly as his ancestor David had (2 Chr 25:2). David continued to be the spiritual standard for evaluating the kings of Judah (2 Kgs 16:2; 18:3; 1 Kgs 15:5, 11). Tolerance for long-established pagan shrines remained a stumbling block for Judah (2 Kgs 12:3; 1 Kgs 14:23; 15:14; 22:43).
