Kommentar zu Könige II 3:2
וַיַּעֲשֶׂ֤ה הָרַע֙ בְּעֵינֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה רַ֕ק לֹ֥א כְאָבִ֖יו וּכְאִמּ֑וֹ וַיָּ֙סַר֙ אֶת־מַצְּבַ֣ת הַבַּ֔עַל אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשָׂ֖ה אָבִֽיו׃
Und er tat das, was vor dem HERRN böse war; aber nicht wie sein Vater und wie seine Mutter; denn er legte die Säule des Baal weg, die sein Vater gemacht hatte. .
Rashi on II Kings
But not [as bad] as his father and mother. Who added the [worship of the ] Baal in order to provoke [God].3Yehorom abolished worship of the Baal but not the Asheiroh because is mother, Izevel, was still alive at the time and she supported Asheiroh worship.—Ralbag
