Exegesis
The final verb wayya’as hara‘ be‘enei YHWH {וַיַּ֥עַשׂ הָרַ֖ע בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה | way-ya’-āš hā-rā‘ bə-‘ē-nê Yə-hō-wāh} employs the idiom be‘enei {בְּעֵינֵ֥י | bə-‘ē-nê} ‘in the eyes of’, a Hebrew expression for divine evaluation. The structure uses causative linkage and repetition to highlight the connection between personal alliance and moral failure.
In context — 2 Chronicles 21:6
And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done, for the daughter of Ahab was his wife, and he did evil in the eyes of the LORD .
