2 Kings 17:17
sons <01121> [they caused.]
practiced <07080> [used.]
committed <04376> [sold.]
sight <05869> [in the sight.]
2 Kings 21:3
high places <01116> [the high places.]
set <06965> [he reared.]
Asherah pole <0842> [a grove.]
Rather, as we have before remarked, Asherah or Astarte. So Castel defines Asherah to be {Simulacrum ligneum Astart‘ dicatum;} "A wooden image dedicated to Astarte."
Ahab <0256> [Ahab.]
bowed <07812> [and worshipped.]
2 Kings 23:5
eliminated <07673> [put down. Heb. caused to cease. the idolatrous priests.]
Heb. Chemarim.
"Foretold. Zep 1:4, 5."
constellations <04208> [planets. or, twelve signs, or constellations.]
So the Vulgate {duodecim signa,} "the twelve signs," i.e., the zodiac; which is the most probable meaning of the word {mazzaloth,} from the Arabic {manzeel,} a {caravanserai,} house, or dwelling, as being the apparent dwellings of the sun in his annual course; and the Targumists and Rabbins often employ the words {tereysar mazzalaya,} to denote the signs of the zodiac.
stars <06635> [all the host.]
