In place of the altar from Damascus which is the main criticism of Ahaz in 2 Kings 16: 10-18, Chronicles prefers to include wider evidence of Ahaz’ increasing apostasy. Shutting the temple doors dose not contradict Ahaz’ worship on the new altar, since the latter was outside the temple. All these activities provoked …God…to anger(v.25). This phrase is very reminiscent of King, suggesting that though this material is unique to Chronicles, it may derive from a source also available to kings.
