"And he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, yet not with a whole heart." (2 Chronicles 25:2)
"After Amaziah came from striking down the Edomites, he brought the gods of the men of Seir and set them up as his gods and worshiped them, making offerings to them." (2 Chronicles 25:14)
a. After Amaziah turned away from God, Israel defeated and raided Judah.
