তেওঁ তেওঁৰ পূর্বপুৰুষসকলৰ দৰেই যিহোৱাৰ দৃষ্টিত যি বেয়া কার্য, তাকেই কৰিলে। নবাটৰ পুতেক যাৰবিয়ামে যি পাপবোৰৰ দ্বাৰাই ইস্ৰায়েলক পাপ কৰাইছিল, সেই সকলো পাপৰ পৰা তেওঁ আঁতৰ নহ’ল।

Explained for Children

Imagine you have a friend who always refuses to clean up their toys. Now, if another friend copies this behavior and doesn't clean up either, it's like they are continuing the bad habit. This verse is talking about a king who did the same bad things that his father did, like not cleaning up his toys.

Historical Background

The Book of 2 Kings was written by prophets around 560 BC. It covers the history of the kings of Israel and Judah. The audience was the Jewish people, and the cultural setting was a time of political turmoil and the rise and fall of kings.

Living It Out Today

In today's world, we can see people continuing bad habits or wrongdoings just because someone else started it. For example, if you see a group of students cheating on tests, and you decide to do the same, you're following in their footsteps. The verse teaches us to avoid these harmful patterns and make better choices.
