Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord,..... At least externally, and at the beginning of his reign:
yet not like David his father; not with a perfect heart, with that sincerity and uprightness as he did, see 2 Chronicles 25:2,
he did according to all things as Joash his father did; who at first reigned well, and then fell into idolatry, as this his son did.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He did ... as Joash - There is a curious parity between the lives of Joash and Amaziah. Both were zealous for Yahweh in the earlier portion of their reigns, but in the latter part fell away; both disregarded the rebukes of prophets; and both, having forsaken God, were in the end conspired against and slain (compare 2 Chronicles 24:25; 2 Chronicles 25:27).
