  against Pekah, the 20th year of the reign of this prince,
  which was the 18th of Jotham, king of Judah.  Two years after
  this, that is, the 4th of Ahaz and the 20th of Jotham, Hosea
  made himself master of a part of the kingdom, according to ch.
  15:30.  Finally, the 12th year of Ahaz, Hosea had peaceable
  possession of the whole kingdom, agreeably to ch.  17:1."

  The new inhabitants of the land imitated the idolatrous
  Israelites, by associating their idols with Jehovah, as the
  objects of worship.  The remainder, however, of the verses
  seem to relate to the Israelites after they were carried
  captive.  They still persevered in idolatry and disobedience;
  and not being purified, were left to be consumed in the
  furnace.  It is said that the Israelites "did not fear the
  Lord," yet the heathens, who followed their example, are said
  "to have feared the Lord."  The Israelites did not so much as
  fear the wrath of Almighty God; but, on the other hand, the
  poor pagans feared the power of his wrath, and to avert it
  paid some ignorant worship, according to the wretched
  instructions given them.  As this was an external
  acknowledgement of his power and Godhead, and a homage paid to
  him,he was pleased in consequence to withdraw his judgements
  from them.--SCOTT
