John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:25
But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him ,.... Both in the deliverance of him and his people from the king of Assyria, and the recovery of him from his sickness: for his heart was lifted up ; with pride, because of the wonderful defeat of the Assyrian army in his favour, the miracle wrought at his recovery from illness, the riches and honour conferred upon him, the presents brought him from his neighbours, and especially the embassy of the king of Babylon to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:26
Notwithstanding, Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem ,.... In what manner is not said; perhaps by putting on sackcloth, and by fasting and prayer, and making confession of sin, and declaring repentance for it: so that the wrath of the Lord came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah ; but in the days of his son's sons, Isaiah 39:7 . read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:24
The extreme brevity again of our compiler, in the account of Hezekiah's illness, and his passing so lightly over whatever in it cast shades upon his character and career, cannot escape our notice. Much fuller is the narrative of 2 Kings 20:1-21 . Gave him a sign (see 2 Kings 20:8-11 , and our verse 31, middle clause. See also at length of the sickness of Hezekiah, Isaiah 38:1-22 .). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:24
Hezekiah's sickness and prayer. I. HEZEKIAH 'S SICKNESS . 1 . The time of it. "In those days" ( 2 Chronicles 32:24 ; 2 Kings 20:1 ; Isaiah 38:1 )—an indefinite expression, differently understood. 2 . The nature of it. A boil ( 2 Kings 20:7 ; Isaiah 38:21 ); but whether an ordinary abscess or a carbuncle cannot be determined, though there is no ground for connecting it with the pestilence that cut off Sennacherib's army. It probably arose out of the bodily... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:24-33
Here we conclude the story of Hezekiah with an account of three things concerning him:? I. His sickness and his recovery from it, 2 Chron. 32:24. The account of his sickness is but briefly mentioned here; we had a large narrative of it, 2 Kgs. 20:1-11 His disease seemed likely to be mortal. In the extremity of it he prayed. God answered him, and gave him a sign that he should recover, the going back of the sun ten degrees. II. His sin and his repentance for it, which were also more largely... read more
