[:en]Thoughts from 2 Kings 20[:]

[:en]Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death.  Isaiah told him that he could not recovered anymore.  Hezekiah wept bitterly and prayed to the Lord. God heard his prayer and add 15 years to his life.  He also promised to deliver him from the hand of the Assyrians.

When the king of Babylon heard of Hezekiah’s illness, he sent letters and a gift to him.    Hezekiah showed the messengers all that was in storehouse.  Because of that, Isaiah told him that everything in his palace will be carried off to Babylon.  When Hezekiah died, his son Manasseh succeeded him as king.[:]
