Gill's Notes on the Bible
Nevertheless, they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin, but walked therein,.... Continued to worship the calves still, which was an instance of great ingratitude; the Syriac and Arabic versions read, "he departed not"; Jehoahaz the king:
and there remained the grove in Samaria; which Ahab made there, 1 Kings 16:33, neither Jehu nor his son had it cut down, though Baal was destroyed.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
But walked therein - Rather, “he walked therein,” meaning Joash, the “saviour” of the preceding verse.
There remained the grove also in Samaria - It seems strange that Jehu had not destroyed this when he put down the worship of Baal 2 Kings 10:26-28. Perhaps the “grove” or “Asherah” worship was too closely connected with the old worship in high places to be set aside with the same ease as the rites newly introduced from Phoenicia.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 13:6. The grove also in Samaria — Asherah, or Astarte, remained in Samaria, and there was she worshipped, with all her abominable rites.
