But Omri wrought evil in the eyes of the Lord,.... Openly and publicly, as if it were in defiance of him:
and did worse than all that were before him; taking no warning by the judgments inflicted on them, which aggravated his sins; and besides, he not only worshipped the calves, as the rest, and drew Israel by his example into the same, as they did, but he published edicts and decrees, obliging them to worship them, and forbidding them to go to Jerusalem, called "the statutes of Omri", Mic 6:16.

Now the rest of the acts of Zimri We see here the tendency of the historian to express himself in formulae. He checks himself, however, and does not add "and all that he did," etc., and his treason that he wrought Heb. his conspiracy which he conspired. Though this was all there was to tell of him, yet no doubt it would be recorded at greater length by the historians of the day. We can hardly suppose that the "books of the words of the days" would dismiss so striking an event in a few sentences, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
