2 Chronicles 29:1

XXIX.

HEZEKIAH (chaps, 29-32.; 2 Kings 18-20); Chap. 29.

LENGTH AND SPIRIT OF THE REIGN. THE SOLEMN PURGATION AND HALLOWING OF THE TEMPLE.

(1) Hezekiah. — Heb., Yĕhizqîyâhu, as if “Strong is Iahu.” 2 Kings writes Hizkîyâh, “My strength is Iah;” Isaiah 27, sqq., Hizkîyâhu. The annals of Sennacherib present the form Hazakiyahu.

Abijan. — 2 Kings has the shortened form Abi. (This verse closely corresponds with 2 Kings 18:2.)
