In these chapters we study one of the most exciting periods of [[Judah]] 's history--that of the reign of King Hezekiah. [[Samarial]] ([[Israel]]) had fallen to [[Assyria]] and now the enemy was attacking [[Judah]]. Ahaz had made a covenant with [[Assyria]] years before, but Hezekiah rebelled against it and invited an invasion from the enemy. Actually, the events of these chapters are not recorded in their exact order, for Hezekiah's sickness occurred during the siege and the visit from the [[Babylon]]ian leaders followed his recovery. Hezekiah reigned 29 years, and since 15 years were given him after his recovery, and the invasion took place the fourteenth year of his reign, then his sickness and the invasion occurred at the same period in his life.

It was very likely a trying time for the king to be ill while [[Assyria]]ns threatened to invade, but oftentimes [[God]] allows trouble to come into our lives in pairs. However, when we wholly trust the [[Lord]], as Hezekiah did, [[God]] is sufficient to meet all our troubles. As [[Christians]], we must remember that [[Romans]] 8:28,29 is always true, and that [[God]] is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
