SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:36
Y se alegró Ezequías, y todo el pueblo, de que Dios hubiese preparado el pueblo; porque la cosa fue prestamente hecha .
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 29:36
Verse 36. And Hezekiah rejoiced] Both he and the people rejoiced that God had prepared their hearts to bring about so great a reformation in so short a time; for, it is added, the thing was done suddenly. The king's example and influence were here, under God, the grand spring of all those mighty and effectual movements. What amazing power and influence has God lodged with kings! They can sway a whole empire nearly as they please; and when they declare themselves in behalf of religion, they have the people uniformly on their side. Kings, on this very ground, are no indifferent beings; they must be either a great curse or a great blessing to the people whom they govern.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 36. And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people , etc.] To see things go on so well, which foreboded good unto them: and particularly that God had prepared the people ; disposed and directed their hearts in such a manner as to yield such a cheerful obedience to the will of God, and show such a hearty regard to his worship and service, and the restoration of it: for the thing was done suddenly ; whereby it the more appeared that they were under a divine influence, which so quickly and powerfully wrought upon them to engage in this work, and needed not arguments and persuasions to bring them to it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 20-36 - As soon as Hezekiah heard that the temple was ready, he lost no time Atonement must be made for the sins of the last reign. It was no enough to lament and forsake those sins; they brought a sin-offering Our repentance and reformation will not obtain pardon but in an through Christ, who was made sin, that is, a sin-offering for us. Whil the offerings were on the altar, the Levites sang. Sorrow for sin mus not prevent us from praising God. The king and the congregation gav their consent to all that was done. It is not enough for us to be wher God is worshipped, if we do not ourselves worship with the heart. An we should offer up our spiritual sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving and devote ourselves and all we have, as sacrifices, acceptable to the Father only through the Redeemer __________________________________________________________________
