Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he built altars in the house of the Lord,.... In the holy place, as distinct from the courts in the next verse; and these were sacred to the idols of the Gentiles:
of which the Lord said, in Jerusalem will I put my name; in the temple there, devoted to his service, called by his name, and where his name was called upon, see Deuteronomy 12:5 and to erect altars to idols here must be very abominable to him.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The âaltarsâ of this verse seem to be the same with those of 2 Kings 21:5, and consequently were not in the temple building, but in the outer and inner courts.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 21:4. Built altars — He placed idolatrous altars even in the temple.
