Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 18. - And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin. The writer does not seem to regard Menahem as either better or worse than his predecessors. The usual formula suffices to describe the moral and religious aspect of his reign.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(18) He did that which was evil.--Ewald says that at the outset Menahem appeared to be guided by better principles, referring to Zechariah 11:4-8.All his days.--In the Hebrew these words occur at the end of the verse. They are not found in any other instance of the common formula which the verse repeats (comp. 1Kings 15:26; 1Kings 15:34; 1Kings 16:26; 1Kings 22:53; 2Kings 3:1; 2Kings 10:31, &c), and almost certainly belong to the next verse. . . .
