Diviseruntque sibi regiones ut circuirent eas : Achab ibat per viam unam, et Abdias per viam alteram seorsum.
et adhsit Domino, et non recessit a vestigiis ejus, fecitque mandata ejus, qu prceperat Dominus Moysi.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
he clave: None of the kings of Judah, from the time of the division of the kingdom, equalled Hezekiah in the stedfastness and simplicity of his dependence upon the Lord; in which he aspired to an equality with his progenitor David, who had reigned over the whole land. Even Asa, through weakness of faith, sought the assistance of a heathen prince; and Jehoshaphat formed an alliance with idolatrous Ahab; but Hezekiah clave to the Lord, in entire confidence and unreserved obedience, to the end of his life. Deuteronomy 10:20, Joshua 23:8, Acts 11:23
from following him: Heb. from after him
kept: 2 Kings 17:13, 2 Kings 17:16, 2 Kings 17:19, Jeremiah 11:4, John 14:15, John 14:21, John 15:10, John 15:14, 1 John 5:3
Gill's Notes on the Bible
For he clave to the Lord,.... To his worship and service; to the fear of the Lord, as the Targum:
and departed not from following him; from his worship, as the same paraphrase:
but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses; both moral, ceremonial, and judicial.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Other good kings, as Solomon, Jehoshaphat, Joash, and Amaziah, had fallen away in their later years. Hezekiah remained firm to the last. The phrase “cleaving to God” is frequent in Deuteronomy, but rare elsewhere.
