2 Kings 19:31 - Forerunner Commentary

2 Kings 19:31

29 ‘This shall be a ^asign to you:
You shall eat this year such as grows¹ of itself,
And in the second year what springs from the same;
Also in the third year sow and reap,
Plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them.

30 ^aAnd the remnant who have escaped of the house of Judah
Shall again take root downward,
And bear fruit upward.

31 For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant,
And those who escape from Mount Zion.
^aThe zeal of the Lord¹ of hosts will do this.’

32 “Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the king of Assyria:
‘He shall ^anot come into this city,
Nor shoot an arrow there,
Nor come before it with shield,
Nor build a siege mound against it.

33 By the way that he came,
By the same shall he return;
And he shall not come into this city,’
Says the Lord.

34 ‘For ^aI will ^bdefend this city, to save it
For My own sake and ^cfor My servant David’s sake.’ ”

Sennacherib’s Defeat and Death

35 And ^ait came to pass on a certain night that the¹ angel of the Lord went out, and killed in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty-five thousand; and when people arose early in the morning, there were the corpses—all dead.

36 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and went away, returned home, and remained at ^aNineveh.
