THE DELIVERANCE.Isaiah 37:36-3836Then the angel of the Lord went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 37So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. 38And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Isaiah 37:33-38

Isaiah THE TRIUMPH OF FAITH Isa_37:14 - Isa_37:21 , Isa_37:33 - Isa_37:38 . Is trust in Jehovah folly or wisdom? That was the question raised by Sennacherib’s invasion. A glance at the preceding chapters will show how the high military official, ‘the rabshakeh,’ or chief of the officers, shaped all his insolent and yet skilful mixture of threats and promises so as to demonstrate the vanity of trust in Egypt or in Jehovah, or in any but ‘the great king.’ Isaiah had been labouring to lift his... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 37:1-38

Penitently, went Hezekiah immediately into the house of the Lord, while he sent messengers to Isaiah. The prophet sent them back with words of encouragement, declaring that God would deliver them. In the meantime Rabshakeh returned to the king in Assyria, and a letter was dispatched to Hezekiah warning him against being deceived by God. This letter he spread before the Lord, and prayed to Him for deliverance. His prayer was characterized by a great simplicity. It was the simplicity of faith... read more

Yahweh’s Reply Through Isaiah (Isaiah 37:21-35 ). Isaiah 37:21-22 ‘Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says Yahweh the God of Israel, In lieu of the fact that you have prayed to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, this is the word which Yahweh has spoken concerning him. ‘The virgin daughter of Zion has despised you and laughed you to scorn. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head after you.’ ” ’ God’s reply to him came through Isaiah. It is Isaiah who is in... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 37:30-35

Yahweh’s Assurance of Deliverance to Jerusalem (Isaiah 37:30-35 ). At this point Isaiah turns his thoughts back to what Hezekiah really wants to know. What is about to happen to Jerusalem? Isaiah 37:30 ‘And this shall be the sign to you, you will eat this year what grows of itself, and in the second year what springs from that, and in the third year, sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.’ The sign that what he has described will come on Sennacherib is given by a promise of... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 37:36-38

Yahweh Reveals His Omnipotence And His Promise Is Fulfilled (Isaiah 37:36-38 ). Having made His ‘boasts’ Yahweh now fulfils them, so much so that within one night the army of Assyria is decimated, and not by a human hand. Isaiah 37:36 ‘And the angel of Yahweh went out and smote in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty five thousand, and when men arose in the morning they were all dead corpses.’ In response to Yahweh’s words the vast army of Assyria was decimated by the Angel of... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 37:1-38

Isaiah 36-39. This section has been extracted from 2 Kings 18:13 to 2 Kings 20:19, and the Song of Hezekiah has been added. For an exposition see the notes on 2 K.; here we have simply to deal with the Song of Hezekiah. Isaiah 38:10-Proverbs : . Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Imminent Death.— This is now generally regarded as a post-exilic psalm. Its absence in the parallel narratine in Kings is significant. Apparently it was inserted here by an editor who thought it suitable to Hezekiah’... read more
