Egli si abbandon a tutti i peccati che suo padre aveva commesso prima di lui, e il suo cuore non fu interamente consacrato allEterno, il suo DIO, come il cuore di Davide suo padre.
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
Ed egli camminò in tutti i peccati di suo padre, ch’egli avea commessi davanti a lui; e il cuor suo non fu intiero inverso il Signore Iddio suo, come era stato il cuore di Davide, suo padre.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him,.... Having such bad examples as both parents to copy after; it chiefly respects idolatrous practices, see 1 Kings 14:23,

and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God; he did profess the true God, and worshipped him, but not wholly, and only, and sincerely; he worshipped other gods besides him: and so his heart was not

as the heart of David his father; who was a sole and sincere worshipper of God, never departed from him and his service.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He walked in all the sins of his father - Yet Abijam prepared precious offerings for the temple service 1 Kings 15:15, probably to replace vessels which Shishak had carried off, and in his war with Jeroboam professed himself a faithful servant of Yahweh 2 Chronicles 13:10-12.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 15:3. His heart was not perfect — He was an idolater, or did not support the worship of the true God. This appears to be the general meaning of the heart not being perfect with God.
