Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:1-33

Hezekiah’s political administration (32:1-33)To the writer of Chronicles, Hezekiah’s religious reforms were the most important feature of his reign. Politically, he was able to remain independent of Assyria, but only because God intervened in response to his faith (32:1-23; see notes on 2 Kings 18:13-19:37). He also made Judah prosperous. But pride in his achievements led him to become friendly with Babylon, the rising power in the region. It was a policy that later brought disaster upon Judah... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 32:27

THE IMMENSE WEALTH AND GLORY OF HEZEKIAH"And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honor: and he provided him treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of goodly vessels; storehouses also for the increase of grain and new wine and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and flocks in folds. Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much substance. This... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 2 Chronicles 32:27

2 Chronicles 32:27. And for shields— Houbigant here reads precious things, instead of shields. REFLECTIONS.—1st, We might have expected that all would be peace and safety after these good things that Hezekiah had done; but behold a dreadful storm arises. We may be in the way of duty, and yet exposed to severe sufferings. It was happy that Hezekiah was not interrupted before he had well proceeded in his work; and now, having God's blessing, he is better prepared to meet his violent foe. 1.... read more

27-29. he had exceeding much riches and honour—(compare 2 Kings 20:13; Isaiah 39:2). A great portion of his personal wealth, like that of David and Uzziah, consisted in immense possessions of agricultural and pastoral produce. Besides, he had accumulated large treasures in gold, silver, and precious things, which he had taken as spoils from the Philistines, and which he had received as presents from neighboring states, among which he was held in great honor as a king under the special... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Chronicles 32:1-33

M. Hezekiah chs. 29-32In contrast to Ahaz, we can see Hezekiah’s love for Yahweh in how he cared for the temple. Ahaz’s reign was full of war, but Hezekiah enjoyed peace. God rewarded Hezekiah’s spiritual restoration of Judah with a remarkable military deliverance. Yet "good king" Hezekiah was not the completely faithful Son of David whose kingdom God had promised to establish forever (1 Chronicles 17:11-14)."He is the ’golden boy’ of Chronicles." [Note: Wilcock, p. 242.] The Chronicler gave... read more

5. Hezekiah’s humility and greatness 32:24-33Hezekiah fell short of being the perfect Son of David, just like all the rest of Judah’s monarchs. Yet when his heart did become proud because of God’s blessings, he humbled himself (2 Chronicles 32:25-26). Consequently, God postponed His discipline (2 Chronicles 32:26).Hezekiah was immensely wealthy and enjoyed much honor in his day (2 Chronicles 32:27-30; cf. Solomon). God rewarded his faithfulness and commitment. The Chronicler passed over... read more

Reign of Hezekiah (concluded)This chapter abbreviates the account of Sennacherib’s invasion as related in 2 Kings 18:13; 2 Kings 20:21, but supplements it by various particulars respecting Hezekiah’s preparation to meet the attack.3.
