列王紀下 19:8 RCUVTS

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 2 Kings 19:1-37

In the presence of the undoubted peril, Hezekiah in penitence turned to his old and trusted friend, the prophet Isaiah, and charged him to pray for that remnant of God's people which still remained. He thereupon uttered a prophecy concerning the deliverance which was to come, and thus revealed the fine scorn of a man who lived in communion with God for all such empty boasting as that of Sennacherib. God has need of a very small thing to work His will. Said Isaiah, "He shall hear a rumour." As... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 19:1-37

The Reign of Hezekiah King of Judah c. 716-687 BC (2 Kings 18:1 to 2 Kings 20:21 ). Co-regency from c 729 BC. There now begins the reign of one of the two great kings after David of whom it could be said ‘after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among those who were before him.’ The other will be Josiah (compare 2 Kings 23:25). In both cases the words are hyperbole and not intended to be applied literally (otherwise David would have been seen as excelled). But they... read more

2 Kings 19:2 . unto Isaiah: from the Book of Isaiah we learn that the prophet had steadily opposed Hezekiah’ s intrigues against Assyria.— Shelna: Isaiah 22:15-Lamentations : *. 2 Kings 19:9 . Ethiopia was the country S. of Egypt. At a time later than this (681 B.C. ?), Tirhakah seems to have established his government in Egypt. There is, therefore, a chronological difficulty in the mention of him here (p. 72). He is, however, not called “ king of Egypt,” and he may have been acting as an... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 2 Kings 19:8

Rab-shakeh returned to the king, to give him an account of the treaty, and to advise with him what was further to be done; leaving behind him the army under the other commanders, mentioned 2 Kings 18:17, as is most probable from the other threatening message here following; which would have been very unsuitable, if his siege had been raised. He was departed from Lachish; not being able to take it. read more

JERUSALEM SUPERNATURALLY DELIVEREDCRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTES.—2 Kings 19:2. Sent to the prophet Isaiah—The prophet, in that Jewish age, was regarded as the messenger and representative of Jehovah. While the king was entrusted to witness of the Royalty and Majesty of God, the prophet was recognized as the oracle of Divine Wisdom and Truth. Here was a crisis of eminent peril to the nation, in which the people and the Name of Jehovah were alike contemptuously menaced. It was a moment for the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 19:1-37

Chapter 19So it came to pass, when Hezekiah heard the words and the threats and the blasphemy, that he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went to the house of the LORD. And Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, they covered themselves with sackcloth, and they came to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This is a day of trouble, of rebuke, of blasphemy: for the children are come... read more

2 Kings 19:7 . I will send a blast, not the simoon or hot wind, very sulphurous and destructive, as in Berosus, but the immediate visitation of an angel, as when the firstborn of the Egyptians were all slain, and the Israelites spared. Scoffing at religion is often among the last revolts allowed to the wicked. 2 Chronicles 32:0. read more
