And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD: he did according to all that his father Uzziah had done.
Jotham carried heavy responsibilities during the remaining years of his father Uzziah's reign before he succeeded him. He did what was right in the sight of the Lord, doing according to all that his father Uzziah had done. Uzziah's judgment restrained Jotham.
His approval was qualified and his obedience incomplete. He did not remove the high places. The people continued to sacrifice and burn incense there. He thereby missed an opportunity to lead a thorough reformation and to strengthen the people's faith through united worship at the temple.
