Contextual Overview

9 After Hezekiah king of Judah got well, he wrote this song: 10 I said, "I am in the middle of my life. Do I have to go through the gates of death? Will I have the rest of my life taken away from me?" 11 I said, "I will not see the Lord in the land of the living again. I will not again see the people who live on the earth. 12 Like a shepherd's tent, my home has been pulled down and taken from me. I am finished like the cloth a weaver rolls up and cuts from the loom. In one day you brought me to this end. 13 All night I cried loudly. Like a lion, he crushed all my bones. In one day you brought me to this end. 14 I cried like a bird and moaned like a dove. My eyes became tired as I looked to the heavens. Lord, I have troubles. Please help me." 15 What can I say? The Lord told me what would happen and then made it happen. I have had these troubles in my soul, so now I will be humble all my life. 16 Lord, because of you, people live. Because of you, my spirit also lives; you made me well and let me live. 17 It was for my own good that I had such troubles. Because you love me very much, you did not let me die but threw my sins far away. 18 People in the place of the dead cannot praise you; those who have died cannot sing praises to you; those who die don't trust you to help them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Hezekiah also had said,.... Unto Isaiah, as in 2 Kings 20:8:

what is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord? both of his health, and of his going up to the temple with thanksgiving for it; though the former is not here mentioned, as it is elsewhere; partly because it is supposed in the latter, for without that he could not have gone up to the temple; and partly because he was more solicitous for the worship and honour of God in his house, the for his health. The Syriac version transposes these verses, "Hezekiah had said, what is the sign? c. and Isaiah had answered, let them take a lump of figs", &c. as if this latter was the sign whereas it was that of the sun's going down ten degrees on the dial of Ahaz, Isaiah 38:7,

Isaiah 38:7- :,

Isaiah 38:7- :.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hezekiah also had said - What evidence or proof have I that I shall be restored, and permitted to go to the temple? The miracle on the sun-dial was performed in answer to this request, and as a demonstration that he should yet be permitted to visit the temple of God (see the note at Isaiah 38:7).
