2Ch 27:2
27:2 And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD,
     according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he
     entered not into the {a} temple of the LORD. And the people
     did yet {b} corruptly.

     (a) That is, to offer incense against the word of God,
         which is spoken of in the commendation of Jotham.
     (b) They were not completely purged from idolatry.

2Ch 27:3
27:3 He built the high {c} gate of the house of the LORD, and on
     the wall of Ophel he built much.

     (c) Which was 60 cubits high and was for the height called
         Ophel: it was at the east gate and mention is made of
         it in @2Ch 3:4.

2Ch 27:6
27:6 So Jotham became mighty, {d} because he prepared his ways
     before the LORD his God.

     (d) He shows that all prosperity comes from God, who never
         fails when we put our trust in him.
