No inquiry about worship
We may, secondly, observe that here is no inquiry made concerning Jehonadab's mode of worship, although it is highly probable there was in this respect also a very wide difference between them. For we may well believe Jehonadab, as well as all his posterity, worshipped God at Jerusalem, whereas Jehu did not. He had more regard to state policy than religion. And therefore although he slew the worshippers of Baal, and destroyed Baal out of Israel (2 Kings 10:28), yet from the convenient sin of Jeroboam, the worship of the golden calves, he departed not (2 Kings 10:29).
