SEV Biblia, Chapter 32:21
Y el SEÑOR envió un ángel, el cual hirió a todo valiente de gran valor, y a los capitanes y a los príncipes en el campamento del rey de Asiria. Se volvió, por tanto , con vergí¼enza de rostro a su tierra; y entrando en el templo de su dios, allí lo mataron a cuchillo los que habían salido de sus entrañas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 32:21
Verse 21. The Lord sent an angel] See 2 Kings xix. 36, and the note there. House of his god] Nisroch.
They that came forth of his own bowels] His sons Adrammelech and Sharezer.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 21. And the Lord sent an angel , etc.] The Targum is, ``the Word of the Lord sent Gabriel;” Josephus takes this angel, or messenger sent of God, to be the pestilence; and others suppose it to be a hot pestilential wind, common in the eastern countries, called “Samiel”, or the poison wind, by which multitudes are sometimes destroyed at once; of which Thevenot and other travellers make mention, (see Gill on “ Job 27:21”), (see Gill on “ Psalm 91:6”), but be it as it may, it was sent of God, was under his direction, and by his power and providence did the execution according to his prediction: which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria ; the generals and officers of his army, with the common soldiers, to the number of 185,000, ( Isaiah 36:1), among these, no doubt, were the three generals sent with railing letters to Hezekiah, particularly Rabshakeh, (See Gill on “ Isaiah 37:36”) so he returned with shame of face to his own land ; Assyria, particularly to Nineveh, the metropolis of it, ( Isaiah 37:37) and when he was come into the house of his god ; the temple of his idol, whose name was Nisroch: they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword ; his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer, ( Isaiah 37:38).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-23 - Those who trust God with their safety, must use proper means, else the tempt him. God will provide, but so must we also. Hezekiah gathered his people together, and spake comfortably to them. A believing confidenc in God, will raise us above the prevailing fear of man. Let the goo subjects and soldiers of Jesus Christ, rest upon his word, and boldl say, Since God is for us, who can be against us? By the favour of God enemies are lost, and friends gained.
