Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 22:4

"And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did the house of Ahab; for they were his counsellors after the death of his father, to his destruction." — 2 Chronicles 22:4 (ASV)

Wherefore. — And he did the evil. As in 2 Kings 8:27.

For they were his counsellors. — Or, became.

To his destruction. — Literally, to destruction to him, the same peculiar expression that is used here also occurred in 2 Chronicles 20:23. This last half of the verse is evidently the chronicler’s own free expansion or interpretation of the words of Kings, for he was son-in-law of the house of Ahab.
