Kommentar zu Könige II 17:33
אֶת־יְהוָ֖ה הָי֣וּ יְרֵאִ֑ים וְאֶת־אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם֙ הָי֣וּ עֹֽבְדִ֔ים כְּמִשְׁפַּט֙ הַגּוֹיִ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־הִגְל֥וּ אֹתָ֖ם מִשָּֽׁם׃
Sie fürchteten den Herrn und dienten ihren eigenen Göttern nach der Art der Nationen, von denen sie weggetragen worden waren.
Rashi on II Kings
As was the custom of the nations from which they had been exiled. Those deities that are worshiped by the nations whom Sancheiriv and his armies had exiled (these) from there, they would worship here.36Alternatively, כמשפט הגוים refers to some of the Bnei Yisroel who also worshiped idols while worshiping God.—Radak
