希 西 家 向 耶 和 华 祷 告 说 :

Contextual Overview

8 The field commander heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish. When he went back, he found the king fighting against the city of Libnah. 9 The king received a report that Tirhakah, the Cushite king of Egypt, was coming to attack him. When the king of Assyria heard this, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, 10 "Tell Hezekiah king of Judah: Don't be fooled by the god you trust. Don't believe him when he says Jerusalem will not be handed over to the king of Assyria. 11 You have heard what the kings of Assyria have done. They have completely defeated every country, so do not think you will be saved. 12 Did the gods of those people save them? My ancestors destroyed them, defeating the cities of Gozan, Haran, and Rezeph, and the people of Eden living in Tel Assar. 13 Where are the kings of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the kings of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?" 14 When Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it, he went up to the Temple of the Lord . He spread the letter out before the Lord 15 and prayed to the Lord : 16 " Lord All-Powerful, you are the God of Israel, whose throne is between the gold creatures with wings, only you are God of all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth. 17 Hear, Lord , and listen. Open your eyes, Lord , and see. Listen to all the words Sennacherib has said to insult the living God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Hezekiah prayed unto the Lord, saying. He did not return railing for railing, but committed himself and his cause to him that judgeth righteously; he did not write an answer to the letter himself, but lays it before the Lord, and prays him to answer it, who was most principally reflected on in it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Isaiah 37:15. Unto the Lord - "Before JEHOVAH"] That is, in the sanctuary. For אל el, the Syriac, Chaldee, and the other copy, 2 Kings 19:15, read לפני liphney, "before the face."
