Matthew Henry · Verses 32–38
Jotham showed great respect to the temple. If magistrates cannot do all they would, for the suppressing of vice and profaneness, let them do the more to support and advance piety and virtue.
2 Kings 15:34
He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes. He did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.
