Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

Did that which was good - He attended to what the law required relative to the worship of God. He was no idolater, though, morally speaking, he was not exempt from faults, 1-Kings 15:14. He suppressed idolatry universally, and encouraged the people to worship the true God: see 2-Chronicles 14:3-5.

And Asa did that which was good and right,.... See 1-Kings 15:11.

Asa did that which was good and right--(compare 1-Kings 15:14). Still his character and life were not free from faults (2-Chronicles 16:7, 2-Chronicles 16:10, 2-Chronicles 16:12).
