TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

God’s Plan to Restore

One of the best known verses in Chronicles lays out God’s plan for Israel: “Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land” (2 Chr 7:14). This verse expresses the Chronicler’s understanding of how God works with his people. The concept has been described as a “theology of immediate retribution”: Each person experiences the consequences for obedience or failure within his or her own lifetime.

The vocabulary of this verse (humble, pray, turn, seek, heal) appears repeatedly in the Chronicler’s writing as he shows this principle operating in the lives of the kings of Judah. The celebration of Passover during Hezekiah’s reign provides one of the most prominent examples. In the very first month of his reign, Hezekiah began to restore the Temple (29:3). He extended an invitation to all Israel (including the people of the northern kingdom) to attend the Passover festival at Jerusalem (30:1). When Hezekiah’s messengers urged the people to turn to the Lord (30:6), many from the north humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem (30:11). So many people arrived that the Judeans could not accommodate them, and those from the north were not ready (ritually) to observe the Passover. Hezekiah prayed for the people as they resolved to seek the Lord (30:18-19). The Lord indeed healed the people (30:20), and they all were able to participate. The festival was going so well that it was extended another seven days (30:23). Hezekiah followed the very principles that Solomon had enunciated in his prayer. Manasseh provides another encouraging example of God’s redemption at work (33:11-23).

Those familiar with Chronicles would have understood well the preaching of John the Baptist as he called for repentance and healing (Matt 3:5-12). Failure to repent will result in judgment. But there is no situation beyond the reach of redemption for those willing to humble themselves before God.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

(Occurrence 0) prayers and requests

(Some words not found in UHB: all/each/any/every prayer all plea which/who will_belong to/from=all/each/any/every the=humankind and=to/for=all people,your Yisrael which/who knowing (a)_man affliction,their_own and,sorrows,his_own and,stretch_out hands,his to/towards the,house the,this )

The words “prayers” and “requests” mean basically the same thing and emphasize that the person is sincere as he makes his requests.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) knowing the plague and sorrow in his own heart

Here “plague” is a metaphor for sin, and sin and sorrow are spoken of as being in people’s hearts. Alternate translation: “knowing the sin and sorrow in his own heart”

Note 3 topic: translate-symaction

(Occurrence 0) he spreads out his hands toward this temple

This was a way of showing that they were praying to the God of the temple. See how you translated “spread out his hands” in 2 Chronicles 6:12.
