2 Crónicas 32:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 32:1

After these things, and the establishment thereof
What are recorded in the preceding chapters, when matters were well settled, especially with respect to religion and temple service, and when Hezekiah was well established in the throne of his kingdom, had fought with and defeated the Philistines, and cast off the Assyrian yoke, and was in very prosperous circumstances; for it was in the fourteenth year of his reign that what follows was done:

Sennacherib king of Assyria came and entered into Judah, and encamped
against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself;
or to break them, or into them; or through them F25 to break down the walls to take them, and join them to himself, as the Targum, and he did take them, see ( 2 Kings 18:13 ) .

2 Crónicas 32:1 In-Context

1 Despu茅s de estos actos de fidelidad, Senaquerib, rey de Asiria, vino e invadi贸 a Jud谩 y siti贸 las ciudades fortificadas, y mand贸 conquistarlas para s铆.
2 Cuando vio Ezequ铆as que Senaquerib hab铆a venido y que se propon铆a hacer guerra contra Jerusal茅n,
3 decidi贸 con sus oficiales y guerreros cortar el agua de las fuentes que estaban fuera de la ciudad, y ellos le ayudaron.
4 Y se reuni贸 mucha gente y cegaron todas las fuentes y el arroyo que flu铆a por la regi贸n, diciendo: 驴Por qu茅 han de venir los reyes de Asiria y hallar tanta agua?
5 Y 茅l cobr贸 谩nimo y reedific贸 toda la muralla que hab铆a sido derribada y levant贸 torres en ella, edific贸 otra muralla exterior, fortific贸 el Milo en la ciudad de David, e hizo armas arrojadizas y escudos en gran cantidad.
