Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 39:2

_ _ glad — It was not the mere act, but the spirit of it, which provoked God (2 Chronicles 32:25), “Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him, for his heart was lifted up”; also compare 2 Chronicles 32:31. God “tries” His people at different times by different ways, bringing out “all that is in their heart,” to show them its varied corruptions. Compare David in a similar case (1 Chronicles 21:1-8).

_ _ precious things — rather, “the house of his (aromatic) spices”; from a Hebrew root, to “break to pieces,” as is done to aromatics.

_ _ silver ... gold — partly obtained from the Assyrian camp (Isaiah 33:4); partly from presents (2 Chronicles 32:23, 2 Chronicles 32:27-29).

_ _ precious ointment — used for anointing kings and priests.

_ _ armour — or else vessels in general; the parallel passage (2 Chronicles 32:27), “treasuries ... for shields,” favors English Version. His arsenal.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
