Isaías 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.

Isaías 39:4 In-Context

2 Se alegró por ello Ezequías y les mostró la casa de su tesoro: la plata y el oro, las especias y el aceite precioso, todo su arsenal y todo lo que se hallaba en sus tesoros. No hubo nada en su casa ni en todo su dominio que Ezequías no les mostrara.
3 Entonces el profeta Isaías vino al rey Ezequías, y le dijo: ¿Qué han dicho esos hombres y de dónde han venido a ti? Y Ezequías respondió: Han venido a mí de un país lejano, de Babilonia.
4 Y él dijo: ¿Qué han visto en tu casa? Y Ezequías respondió: Han visto todo lo que hay en mi casa; no hay nada entre mis tesoros que yo no les haya mostrado.
5 Entonces Isaías dijo a Ezequías: Oye la palabra del SEÑOR de los ejércitos:
6 "He aquí, vienen días cuando todo lo que hay en tu casa y todo lo que tus padres han atesorado hasta el día de hoy, será llevado a Babilonia; nada quedará"dice el SEÑOR.
