Contextual Overview
1 In those days Hezekiah became sick enough to die. The man of God, Isaiah the son of Amoz, came to him and said, "This is what the Lord says, ‘Get those of your house ready. For you will die. You will not get well again.'" 2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord, saying, 3 "I beg You, O Lord, remember how I have walked before You in truth and with a whole heart. I have done what is good in Your eyes." And Hezekiah cried much. 4 Before Isaiah had gone out of the center room, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, 5 "Return to Hezekiah the leader of My people. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your father David, says, "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. See, I will heal you. On the third day you must go up to the house of the Lord. 6 And I will add fifteen years to your life. I will save you and this city from the power of the king of Assyria. And I will help this city because of My honor and because of My servant David." ‘ " 7 Then Isaiah said, "Bring a loaf made of figs. Have them take and lay it on the sore on Hezekiah's body. Then he will be well again." And they took and laid it on the boil and he was healed. 8 Hezekiah said to Isaiah, "What will be the special thing for me to see, that the Lord will heal me, and that I will go up to the house of the Lord on the third day?" 9 Isaiah said, "This will be the special thing for you to see from the Lord, to show that the Lord will do what He has said. Will the shadow go ten steps farther, or go back ten steps?" 10 Hezekiah answered, "It is easy for the shadow to go ten steps farther. But let the shadow turn back ten steps."
