2 Reyes 18:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 18:13

Now in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah
Eight years after the captivity of Israel:

did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities
of Judah, and took them;
many of them, the frontier towns, and proceeded as far as Lachish; ambitious of enlarging his dominions, his father having subdued the kingdom of Israel, and being also provoked by Hezekiah's refusing to pay him tribute. Mention is made of this king by name, by Herodotus and other Heathen writers, see the note on ( Isaiah 36:1 ) in the Apocryha:

``Now when Enemessar was dead, Sennacherib his son reigned in his stead; whose estate was troubled, that I could not go into Media.'' (Tobit 1:15)

he is called Sennacherib, and is said to be son of Enemassat, that is, Shalmaneser; however, he succeeded him in his kingdom; though some F15 take him to be the same with Shalmaneser: he is said by Metasthenes
FOOTNOTES:

F16 to reign seven years, and was succeeded by Assaradon, who, according to him, reigned ten years.


F15 Lud. Vives in Aug. de Civ. Dei, l. 18. c. 24.
F16 De Judicio Temp. fol. 221. 2.

2 Reyes 18:13 In-Context

11 Y el rey de Asiria llevó a Israel al destierro en Asiria, y los puso en Halah y en el Habor, río de Gozán, y en las ciudades de los medos,
12 porque no obedecieron la voz del SEÑOR su Dios, sino que quebrantaron su pacto, es decir, todo lo que Moisés, siervo del SEÑOR, había ordenado; no escucharon, ni lo cumplieron.
13 Y en el año catorce del rey Ezequías, subió Senaquerib, rey de Asiria, contra todas las ciudades fortificadas de Judá, y las tomó.
14 Entonces Ezequías, rey de Judá, envió a decir al rey de Asiria en Laquis: He hecho lo malo. Retírate de mí; lo que me impongas, aceptaré. Y el rey de Asiria impuso a Ezequías, rey de Judá, trescientos talentos de plata y treinta talentos de oro.
15 Y Ezequías le dio toda la plata que se hallaba en la casa del SEÑOR y en los tesoros de la casa del rey.
