2 Crônicas 32:21 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 32:21

And the Lord sent an angel
The Targum is,

``the Word of the Lord sent Gabriel;''

Josephus F1 takes this angel, or messenger sent of God, to be the pestilence; and others suppose it to be a hot pestilential wind, common in the eastern countries, called "Samiel", or the poison wind, by which multitudes are sometimes destroyed at once; of which Thevenot and other travellers make mention, (See Gill on Job 27:21), (See Gill on Psalms 91:6), but be it as it may, it was sent of God, was under his direction, and by his power and providence did the execution according to his prediction:

which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and
captains in the camp of the king of Assyria;
the generals and officers of his army, with the common soldiers, to the number of 185,000, ( Isaiah 36:1 ) , among these, no doubt, were the three generals sent with railing letters to Hezekiah, particularly Rabshakeh, (See Gill on Isaiah 37:36)

so he returned with shame of face to his own land;
Assyria, particularly to Nineveh, the metropolis of it, ( Isaiah 37:37 )

and when he was come into the house of his god;
the temple of his idol, whose name was Nisroch:

they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword;
his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer, ( Isaiah 37:38 ) .

2 Crônicas 32:21 In-Context

19 Referiram-se ao Deus de Jerusalém como falavam dos deuses dos outros povos da terra, que não passam de obra das mãos dos homens.
20 Por tudo isso o rei Ezequias e o profeta Isaías, filho de Amoz, clamaram em oração aos céus.
21 E o SENHOR enviou um anjo, que matou todos os homens de combate e todos os líderes e oficiais no acampamento do rei assírio, de forma que este se retirou envergonhado para a sua terra. E certo dia, ao adentrar o templo do seu deus, alguns dos seus filhos o mataram à espada.
22 Assim o SENHOR salvou Ezequias e o povo de Jerusalém das mãos de Senaqueribe, rei da Assíria, e das mãos de todos os outros e cuidou deles em todas as fronteiras.
23 Muitos trouxeram a Jerusalém ofertas para o SENHOR e presentes valiosos para Ezequias, rei de Judá. Daquela ocasião em diante ele foi muito respeitado por todas as nações.
