Hath not the same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before one altar, and burn incense upon it?

And he walked in all the ways of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing {that which was} right in the eyes of the LORD:

But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.

Save that the high places were not removed: the people sacrificed and burnt incense still on the high places.

Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days.

For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.
