Contextual Overview

8 When Asa heard these words and the words of Azariah the son of Oded, his heart became strong. He put away the sinful false gods from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities he had taken in the hill country of Ephraim. He built again the altar of the Lord which was in front of the porch of the Lord's house. 9 Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, who lived with them. For many had left Israel to come to him when they saw that the Lord his God was with him. 10 So they gathered together at Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa's rule. 11 They killed animals on the altar in worship to the Lord that day. They killed and gave 700 cattle and 7,000 sheep from the animals they had taken in battle. 12 And they agreed to follow the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and soul. 13 Whoever would not follow the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, young or old, man or woman. 14 They made a promise to the Lord with a loud voice, calling out and blowing horns. 15 All Judah was filled with joy because of the promise. For they had promised with their whole heart. They had looked for the Lord with a pure heart. And He let them find Him. So the Lord gave them rest on every side. 16 King Asa even stopped his mother from being queen mother. Because she had made a sinful object of the false goddess Asherah. Asa cut down her sinful object. He crushed it and burned it at the Kidron River. 17 But the high places were not taken away from Israel. Yet Asa's heart was without blame all his days.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 15:18. The things that his father had dedicated — As it was a custom to dedicate a part of the spoils taken from an enemy to the service and honour of God, it is natural to suppose that Abijah, having so signally overthrown Jeroboam, (2 Chronicles 13:15-19,) had dedicated a part of the spoils to the Lord; but they had not been brought into the temple till this time.

Silver, and gold, and vessels. — The word כלים kelim, which we translate vessels, signifies instruments, utensils, ornaments, &c.
