Hezekiah: King of Judah: His Piety

And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David had done.

Hezekiah trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel. No king of Judah was like him, either before him or after him.

He remained faithful to the LORD and did not turn from following Him; he kept the commandments that the LORD had given Moses.

And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David had done.

So this is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah. He did what was good and upright and true before the LORD his God.

He acted with all his heart in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law and the commandments, in order to seek his God. And so he prospered.

As for the rest of the acts of Hezekiah and his deeds of loving devotion, they are indeed written in the vision of the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.

Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did Hezekiah not fear the LORD and seek His favor, and did not the LORD relent of the disaster He had pronounced against them? But we are about to bring great harm on ourselves!”
