2 KingsSteve Gregg

In this talk, Steve Gregg continues on from his discussion of 2 Kings chapter 18 to explore the events of chapter 19 and 20. He explains how Hezekiah's willingness to listen to the prophet Isaiah led to significant reforms but also details the king's struggle with his own desires and lack of resignation to God's will, which ultimately led to his downfall. Gregg also touches upon a number of prophesies made by Isaiah, including the prediction of Babylon coveting Jerusalem's wealth and the divine sign given to Hezekiah through the shadow of a sundial. Overall, Gregg provides a detailed and insightful analysis of these chapters in the Old Testament.
