Wesley's Notes

32:3 To stop - And withal to draw the waters by secret pipes underground to Jerusalem.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

32:1-23 Those who trust God with their safety, must use proper means, else they tempt him. God will provide, but so must we also. Hezekiah gathered his people together, and spake comfortably to them. A believing confidence in God, will raise us above the prevailing fear of man. Let the good subjects and soldiers of Jesus Christ, rest upon his word, and boldly say, Since God is for us, who can be against us? By the favour of God, enemies are lost, and friends gained.


2 Chronicles 32:2 Now when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come and that he intended to make war on Jerusalem,
2 Chronicles 32:4 So many people assembled and stopped up all the springs and the stream which flowed through the region, saying, "Why should the kings of Assyria come and find abundant water?" (NASB ©1995)
