So Jehu eradicated Baal worship from Israel.
They demolished the sacred pillar of Baal and the temple of Baal; it is used as a latrine to this very day.
However, Jehu did not repudiate the sins which Jeroboam son of Nebat had encouraged Israel to commit; the golden calves remained in Bethel and Dan.
“I will punish her for the festival days when she burned incense to the Baal idols; she adorned herself with earrings and jewelry, and went after her lovers, but she forgot me!” says the Lord.
