Gill's Notes on the Bible

Nevertheless, the people did sacrifice still in the high places,.... Not in those that were built for idols, at least did not sacrifice to them; for it follows:

yet unto the Lord their God only; the Targum is,

"to the name of the Word of the Lord their God.''

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare 2 Kings 21:2, note; 2 Kings 18:4, note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
