Sennacherib invading Judah, Hezekiah fortifies himself, and encourages his people9. Hezekiah and Isaiah pray against the blasphemies of Sennarchib 21. An angel destroys the host of the Assyrians 24. Hezekiah praying in his sickness, God gives him a sign of recovery 25. His proud heart is humbled by God 27. His wealth and works 31. His error in the ambassage of Babylon 32. He dying, Manasseh succeeds him This is what Sennacherib king of Assyria says Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, was a powerful ruler known for his military conquests and expansion of the Assyrian Empire. Historically, Sennacherib's reign (705–681 BC) was marked by his campaigns against Babylon and Judah. The Assyrian Empire was a dominant force in the ancient Near East, and Sennacherib's words carry the weight of an empire known for its might and brutality. His statement is not just a personal challenge but a representation of the Assyrian threat to the smaller kingdoms, including Judah. The historical context here is crucial, as it sets the stage for understanding the immense pressure and fear that Judah faced. On what are you basing your confidence that you remain in Jerusalem under siege? 2Chronicles 32:10-15 reproduce in brief the leading ideas of 2Kings 18:19-25; 2Kings 18:28-35. Verse 10. - In the siege. This Authorized Version rendering is manifestly incorrect, though, if we simply omit the article, and tender in siege, we shall probably have Sennacherib's exact idea. He spoke not of the literal technical thing siege, but of the distress and confinement that the apprehension of the siege did not fail to bring. This so to say moral tone to the rendering of the word (בְּמָצור) is much to be preferred to that of the margin, "in the fortress or stronghold."Parallel Commentaries ...
