Toen zond de Heer een engel, die alle kloeke helden, vorsten en oversten in het leger van den koning van Assyrie wegvaagde; zodat deze met beschaamde kaken naar zijn land terugkeerde, en toen hij in den tempel van zijn god kwam, daar door zijn lijfelijke zonen met het zwaard werd geveld.

Staten Vertaling
En de HEERE zond een engel, die alle strijdbare helden, en vorsten, en oversten in het leger des konings van Assyrie verdelgde. Zo is hij met schaamte des aangezichts in zijn land wedergekeerd; en als hij in het huis zijns gods ingegaan was, zo velden hem daar met het zwaard, die uit zijn lijf voortgekomen waren.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Lord sent an angel,.... The Targum is,

"the Word of the Lord sent Gabriel;''

Josephus a takes this angel, or messenger sent of God, to be the pestilence; and others suppose it to be a hot pestilential wind, common in the eastern countries, called "Samiel", or the poison wind, by which multitudes are sometimes destroyed at once; of which Thevenot and other travellers make mention, :-,

:-, but be it as it may, it was sent of God, was under his direction, and by his power and providence did the execution according to his prediction:

which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria; the generals and officers of his army, with the common soldiers, to the number of 185,000, Isaiah 36:1, among these, no doubt, were the three generals sent with railing letters to Hezekiah, particularly Rabshakeh,

Isaiah 36:1- :

so he returned with shame of face to his own land; Assyria, particularly to Nineveh, the metropolis of it, Isaiah 37:37

and when he was come into the house of his god; the temple of his idol, whose name was Nisroch:

they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword; his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer, Isaiah 37:38.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The author of Chronicles compresses into 13 verses the history which occupies in Kings a chapter and a half (2 Kings 18:17-19; where see the notes).

2 Chronicles 32:10

In the siege - Perhaps “in straitness” (compare Jeremiah 19:9). Jerusalem is thought by some to have been not so much besieged at this time, as distressed and straitened for supplies, because the Assyrians were masters of the open country.

2 Chronicles 32:13

fathers - i. e. “predecessors.” Sennacherib really belonged to a dynasty that had only furnished one king before himself.

2 Chronicles 32:22

Guided them ... - A slight alteration of the existing text gives the sense - “gave them rest round about;” a common expression in Chronicles 2 Chronicles 15:15; 2 Chronicles 20:30.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 32:21. The Lord sent an angel — See 2 Kings 19:36, and the note there.

House of his god — Nisroch.

They that came forth of his own bowels — His sons Adrammelech and Sharezer.
