2 Kings 20

2 Kings 20

King Hezekiah becomes mortally ill. The prophet Isaiah commands him to set his affairs in order because he is going to die. Hezekiah weeps bitterly and prays to God, reminding Him of his faithful service. God immediately sends Isaiah back to inform Hezekiah that He has heard his prayer and will add fifteen years to his life. As a miraculous sign, God causes the shadow on the sundial to move backward ten steps. Later, Hezekiah foolishly shows all his immense treasures and armaments to a delegation from Babylon, prompting Isaiah to prophesy future Babylonian captivity.
