Verse 7 is found in chapter 21 of 2 Kings. Manasseh begins a long reign and reverses many of Hezekiah’s reforms. He rebuilds the high places, erects altars to Baal, makes an Asherah, and places idolatrous altars even inside the temple. He also practices divination and leads the people to do evil. The passage presents a complete reversal of the previous reform: what Hezekiah had removed returns to the center of religious life. The seriousness increases because Manasseh does not merely tolerate foreign practices, but introduces them into the space designated for worship of the Lord.
