TSK · 2 Chronicles 20:33

But to this very day the LORD has not given you an understanding mind, perceptive eyes, or discerning ears!

He did evil because he was not determined to follow the LORD.

The high places were not eliminated from Israel, yet Asa was wholeheartedly devoted to the LORD throughout his lifetime.

Nevertheless you have done some good things; you removed the Asherah poles from the land and you were determined to follow God.”

However, the people continued to offer sacrifices at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
