**twenty and five years old:** i.e. when he began to reign alone. He was twenty when his father was smitten, and when he became co-regent. At his father's death he was twenty-five, and Ahaz was five. See App-50 .

**the LORD.** Hebrew. *Jehovah.* App-4 .
**according to all:** i.e. to all the good, not the evil. Hence the "howbeit", which follows.
**entered not into.** As his father had done ([2 Chronicles 26:16](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/26/16) ). Not like Ahaz ([2 Chronicles 28:24](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/28/24) ).

**high** = upper.
**Ophel** = the Ophel; or, the lofty place or tower at the north end of the hill of Zion, between Zion and the Temple.

**children** = sons.
**measures.** Hebrew. *kor.* App-51 .

**became mighty** = strengthened himself.
**prepared** = fixed, or established.

**lo.** Figure of speech *Asterismos.* App-6 .

**five and twenty.** Repeated here from [2 Chronicles 27:1](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/27/1) , to show that he continued his well-doing.

**slept, &c.** See note on [Deuteronomy 31:16](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/31/16) . This chapter is complementary to [2 Kings 16](../../../kjv/2-kings/16) . See App-56 .
