Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Kings 18:5-6

_ _ He trusted in the Lord God of Israel — without invoking the aid or purchasing the succor of foreign auxiliaries like Asa (1 Kings 15:18, 1 Kings 15:19) and Ahaz (2 Kings 16:17; Isaiah 7:1-25).

_ _ so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah — Of course David and Solomon are excepted, they having had the sovereignty of the whole country. In the petty kingdom of Judah, Josiah alone had a similar testimony borne to him (2 Kings 23:25). But even he was surpassed by Hezekiah, who set about a national reformation at the beginning of his reign, which Josiah did not. The pious character and the excellent course of Hezekiah was prompted, among other secondary influences, by a sense of the calamities his father’s wicked career had brought on the country, as well as by the counsels of Isaiah.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 2 Kings 18:1-8.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Kings 18:5

Trusted — Without calling in foreign succours to establish or help him; which his father Ahaz did; and before him Asa. Before him — Of the kings of Judah only; for David and Solomon were kings of all Israel. The like is said of Josiah, 2 Kings 23:25. Each of them, excelled the other in several respects. Hezekiah in this, that he fell upon this work in the beginning of his reign, which Josiah did not, and with no less resolution, undertaking to do that which none of his predecessors durst do, even to remove the high places, wherein Josiah did only follow his example.
