Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 3. - He built again; literally, returned and built - the ordinary Hebrew idiom for "took again to building," etc. Made groves; i.e. as often before the stocks that set forth Ashtoreth (Deuteronomy 16:21). The parallel gives prominence to the one Asherah, ten times offensive, as set up in the house of the Lord (ver. 7 there). The mention of his pantheon of the host of heaven is an addition to the wickedness of former wicked kings. It is also noted in the parallel.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) For.--And. (See margin.)Broken down.--2Chronicles 23:17; 2Chronicles 31:1 ("threw down"). Kings has "destroyed" ('ibbad).Baalim.--The Baals--i.e., the different images of Baal. Kings has the singular, both here and in the next word, "groves," or rather Asheras ('Ash?roth; Kings, 'Ash?rah). The latter plural is rhetorical: Manasseh made such things as Asheras. (Comp. also the use of the plural in 2Chronicles 32:31, and the passages there referred to.) Kings adds: "as Ahab king of Israel made."
