Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

2 Kings 22:15-20

_ _ she said unto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Tell the man that sent you to me — On being consulted, she delivered an oracular response in which judgment was blended with mercy; for it announced the impending calamities that at no distant period were to overtake the city and its inhabitants. But at the same time the king was consoled with an assurance that this season of punishment and sorrow should not be during his lifetime, on account of the faith, penitence, and pious zeal for the divine glory and worship which, in his public capacity and with his royal influence, he had displayed.
