SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:20
Y oyó el SEÑOR a Ezequías, y sanó al pueblo.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 20. And the Lord hearkened to Hezekiah , etc.] Heard his prayer, and accepted of it, and granted what he desired: and healed his people ; that is, forgave their sins, as Kimchi interprets it; forgiveness being expressed by healing, for which he refers to ( Psalm 41:4) to which may be added ( <19A303> Psalm 103:3 Malachi 4:2) and which was known either by a prophet sent to declare it, or by not punishing them for their offence.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-20 - The great thing needful in attendance upon God in solemn ordinances is, that we make heart-work of it; all is nothing without this. Wher this sincerity and fixedness of heart are, there may yet be many thing short of the purification of the sanctuary. These defects nee pardoning, healing grace; for omissions in duty are sins, as well a omissions of duty. If God should deal with us in strict justice, eve as to the very best of our doings, we should be undone. The way to obtain pardon, is to seek it of God by prayer; it must be gotten by petition through the blood of Christ. Yet every defect is sin, an needs forgiveness; and should be matter to humble, but not to discourage us, though nothing can make up for the want of a hear prepared to seek the Lord.
