Isaiah 39:4

4 et dixit quid viderunt in domo tua et dixit Ezechias omnia quae in domo mea sunt viderunt non fuit res quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis

Isaiah 39:4 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 39:4

Then said he, what have they seen in thine house?
&c.] Coming nearer to the point he had in view, and which was the thing that was displeasing to the Lord; not that he had received the ambassadors, and used them in such a manner as persons in such a quality ought to be used; but that he had shown them what he ought not to have done, and especially from such a principle of pride and vanity as he did: and Hezekiah answered
without any reserve, very openly, not suspecting that the prophet was come with a reproof to him, or to blame him, or would blame him for what he had done: all that is in my house have they seen;
the several royal apartments, and the furniture of them: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them:
which were more secret, laid up in cabinets, under lock and key; his gold, silver, jewels, and precious stones, spices, and ointments. Jerom thinks he showed them the furniture and vessels of the temple, though he does not mention them.

Isaiah 39:4 In-Context

2 laetatus est autem super eis Ezechias et ostendit eis cellam aromatum et argenti et auri et odoramentorum et unguenti optimi et omnes apothecas supellectilis suae et universa quae inventa sunt in thesauris eius non fuit verbum quod non ostenderet eis Ezechias in domo sua et in omni potestate sua
3 introiit autem Isaias propheta ad regem Ezechiam et dixit ei quid dixerunt viri isti et unde venerunt ad te et dixit Ezechias de terra longinqua venerunt ad me de Babylone
4 et dixit quid viderunt in domo tua et dixit Ezechias omnia quae in domo mea sunt viderunt non fuit res quam non ostenderim eis in thesauris meis
5 et dixit Isaias ad Ezechiam audi verbum Domini exercituum
6 ecce dies venient et auferentur omnia quae in domo tua sunt et quae thesaurizaverunt patres tui usque ad diem hanc in Babylonem non relinquetur quicquam dicit Dominus
