Exegesis
The Hebrew vav-consecutive verb vayyaas {וַיַּ֥עַשׂ | wayyāʿăś} ‘and he did’ opens the verse and frames sequential narrative, followed by the definite noun haraʿ {הָרַ֖ע | hā·raʿ} ‘the evil’ linked to divine perspective through the idiomatic phrase b’eynei {בְּעֵינֵ֣י | bə·ʿê·nay} ‘in the eyes of.’
In context — 2 Chronicles 33:2
And he did what was evil in the eyes of the LORD , like the abominations of the nations whom the LORD had driven out before the sons of Israel.
