Explanation preview
Pekahiah, son of Menahem, had just become king of Israel in Samaria, and this verse gives the verdict on his two year reign. The narrator measures him by the standard used for every northern king: he did evil in the LORD's sight and did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, the first king of the northern kingdom, who set up golden calves at Dan and Bethel and led Israel into idolatry.
