Contextual Overview

⁸ The field commander heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish. When he went back, he found the king fighting against the city of Libnah. ⁹ The king received a report that Tirhakah, the Cushite king of Egypt, was coming to attack him. When the king of Assyria heard this, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, ¹⁰ "Tell Hezekiah king of Judah: Don't be fooled by the god you trust. Don't believe him when he says Jerusalem will not be handed over to the king of Assyria. ¹¹ You have heard what the kings of Assyria have done. They have completely defeated every country, so do not think you will be saved. ¹² Did the gods of those people save them? My ancestors destroyed them, defeating the cities of Gozan, Haran, and Rezeph, and the people of Eden living in Tel Assar. ¹³ Where are the kings of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the kings of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?" ¹⁴ When Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it, he went up to the Temple of the Lord . He spread the letter out before the Lord ¹⁵ and prayed to the Lord : " Lord , God of Israel, whose throne is between the gold creatures with wings, only you are God of all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the heavens and the earth. ¹⁶ Hear, Lord , and listen. Open your eyes, Lord , and see. Listen to the words Sennacherib has said to insult the living God. ¹⁷ It is true, Lord , that the kings of Assyria have destroyed these countries and their lands.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hezekiah received the letter - The inscriptions show that scribes accompanied the Assyrian armies, with the materials of their craft, so that such a dispatch might be easily drawn up. As Hezekiah himself “read” it, we may presume that it was in the Hebrew tongue.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 19:14. Spread it before the Lord — The temple was considered to be God's dwelling-place; and that whatever was there was peculiarly under his eye. Hezekiah spread the letter before the Lord, as he wished him to read the blasphemies spoken against himself.
