SCRIPTURE

"And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters." — 2 Chronicles 24:3 (ASV)

And Jehoiada took for him two wives. —A statement not found in the parallel narrative, and doubtless taken by the compiler from another source. Instead of this, we read in 2 Kings 12:4: Only the high places were not taken away; the people were still accustomed to sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.
