Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Kings 14:3-6

_ _ He did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, yet not like David his father — The beginning of his reign was excellent, for he acted the part of a constitutional king, according to the law of God, yet not with perfect sincerity of heart (compare 2 Chronicles 25:2). As in the case of his father Joash, the early promise was belied by the devious course he personally followed in later life (see 2 Chronicles 20:14), as well as by the public irregularities he tolerated in the kingdom.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

(a) In the beginning of his reign he seemed to have an outward show of godliness, but later he became an idolater and worshipped the idols of the Idumeans.
