Mise l’immagine scolpita dell’idolo che avea fatto, nella casa di Dio, riguardo alla quale Dio avea detto a Davide e a Salomone suo figliuolo: "In questa casa, e a Gerusalemme, che io ho scelta fra tutte le tribù d’Israele, porrò il mio nome in perpetuo;
Egli pose eziandio la scultura del simulacro ch’egli avea fatto, nella Casa di Dio, della quale Iddio avea detto a Davide, ed a Salamone, suo figliuolo: Io metterò il mio Nome in perpetuo in questa Casa, ed in Gerusalemme, che io ho eletta d’infra tutte le tribù d’Israele.
Bible Verse Review

he set a carved image: The Targumist says, "He set up an image, the likeness of himself, in the house of the sanctuary." In the parallel passage it is, "a graven image of the grove," or rather, Asherah or Astarte. Manasseh, as Bp. Patrick observes, seems to have studied to find out what God had forbidden in his law, that he might practice it: amost prodigious change from the height of piety in his father's time, into the sink of impiety in this!

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The idol - i. e. the Asherah (2 Kings 21:7 note), which receives here (and in Ezekiel 8:3, Ezekiel 8:5) the somewhat unusual name of semel, which some regard as a proper name, and compare with the Greek Σεμέλη Semelē.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 33:7. A carved image — "He set up an image, the likeness of himself, in the house of the sanctuary." The Targumist supposes he wished to procure himself Divine honours.
