 (2 Chron. 32:24-26). Here we see the king’s feelings when he received the messengers of Babylon. (The Embassy From Babylon: 2 Kings 20:12-19 by H.L. Rossier)
 Hezekiah hearkened to them.” Thus they had some request to make of him, some alliance to propose to him against their common enemy, whose yoke Hezekiah had himself thrown off. The Word does not tell us that this alliance was concluded, but that the king received the ambassadors favorably. Here he once more made the humiliating experience that his trust in God was not absolute. (The Embassy From Babylon: 2 Kings 20:12-19 by H.L. Rossier)
 (2 Chron. 32:31). Left to himself, “his heart was lifted up.” He displayed the riches God had given him so that he might vaunt himself before the eyes of these strangers instead of glorifying before these idolaters the God who had saved him by a miracle when he was appointed to death, and who had richly blessed him in replenishing his treasures. Rossier la94637 (The Embassy From Babylon: 2 Kings 20:12-19 by H.L. Rossier)
