2 Chronicles 32:29 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 32:29

Moreover, he provided him cities
Where he had the above storehouses and stalls, and convenient dwellings for those that looked after them, and were over his cattle, small and great, as follows; the Vulgate Latin version reads six cities in some copies ^F2:

and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance;
in which the riches of men, and even of kings, lay in those times:

for God had given him substance very much;
for all was owing to his disposing providence, let it come which way it might.

2 Chronicles 32:29 In-Context

27 And Hezekiah had very great wealth and honour; and he made himself store-houses for his gold and silver and jewels and spices, and for body-covers and all sorts of beautiful vessels.

28 And store-houses for the produce of grain and wine and oil; and buildings for all sorts of beasts and flocks.

29 And he made towns for himself, and got together much property in flocks and herds: for God had given him great wealth.

30 It was Hezekiah who had the higher spring of the water of Gihon stopped, and the water taken down on the west side of the town of David. In everything he undertook, Hezekiah did well.

31 However, in the business of the representatives sent by the rulers of Babylon to get news of the wonder which had taken place in the land, God gave up guiding him, testing him to see what was in his heart.
