 The history of Israel being ended, we now find, to the end of this book, the history of the kings of Judah....All the while keeping up this outward appearance, given up by Ephraim from the beginning of its existence, Judah was morally far from God. The prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel inform us about its inward condition. (Hezekiah, King of Judah: 2 Kings 18-20 by H.L. Rossier)
 We are entering the period of revivals, properly so called; the first, that of Hezekiah, with which we are about to be occupied; the second, that of Josiah. The prominent characteristic of these revivals is that they are absolutely the fruit of the grace of God. They are not foreseen, no preliminary work introduces them, no sign of repentance on part of the people precedes them. They are the direct work of the Spirit of God. (Hezekiah, King of Judah: 2 Kings 18-20 by H.L. Rossier)
 The revivals at the end are, in a word, a rupture with tradition and a return to that which was at the beginning. This fact strikes us particularly in the history of Hezekiah and in that of Josiah. (Hezekiah, King of Judah: 2 Kings 18-20 by H.L. Rossier)
