SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:19
Mas ni aun Judá guardó los mandamientos del SEÑOR su Dios; antes anduvieron en los estatutos de Israel, los cuales ellos mismos hicieron.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. Also Judah kept not the commandments of the Lord their God , etc.] But were infected with the idolatry of the ten tribes, and drawn into it by their example, and persisted therein, notwithstanding what befell the ten tribes; which are aggravations of the sins of them both, (see Jeremiah 3:7-10), but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made ; worshipping the calves as they did, particularly in the times of Ahaz, he setting the example, (see 2 Kings 16:3).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-23 - Though the destruction of the kingdom of the ten tribes was but briefl related, it is in these verses largely commented upon, and the reason of it given. It was destruction from the Almighty: the Assyrian was but the rod of his anger, Isa 10:5. Those that bring sin into a country of family, bring a plague into it, and will have to answer for all the mischief that follows. And vast as the outward wickedness of the worl is, the secret sins, evil thoughts, desires, and purposes of mankin are much greater. There are outward sins which are marked by infamy but ingratitude, neglect, and enmity to God, and the idolatry an impiety which proceed therefrom, are far more malignant. Withou turning from every evil way, and keeping God's statutes, there can be no true godliness; but this must spring from belief of his testimony as to wrath against all ungodliness and unrighteousness, and his merc in Christ Jesus.
