1 Kings 15 Scofield
Read 1 Kings 15 · Matthew Henry on 1 Kings 15
15:14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days.
“high places”
Cf. 2 Chr 14:3. It appears that local sacrifices to Jehovah (though not according to the divine order) were offered in the times of the kings upon "high places" (cf) 1 Sam 9:12. Apparently Asa's mother had defiled one of these with an idol, 1 Kgs 15:13. Asa destroyed the idol and the idolatrous (but not the Jehovistic) "high places." But see "high places," (See Scofield "1 Kgs 3:2").
15:24 And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
“Jehoshaphat”
Called Josaphat, Matt 1:8.
