Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Good is the word ... - The language is, according to some, that of a true spirit of resignation and humility; according to others, that of a feeling of relief and satisfaction that the evil was not to come in his day. Such a feeling would be but natural, and though not according to the standard of Christian perfectness, would imply no very great defect of character in one who lived under the old Dispensation.
Peace and truth - Rather, “peace and continuance.†The evils threatened were war and the dissolution of the kingdom.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 20:19. Good is the word of the Lord — He has spoken right, I have done foolishly. I submit to his judgments.
Is it not good if peace and truth be in my days? — I believe Hezekiah inquires whether there shall be peace and truth in his days. And the question seems to be rather of an interested nature. He does not appear to deplore the calamities that were coming on the land, provided peace and truth might prevail in his days.
