20.1 In diebus illis. RAB. in lib. Reg., tom. 3. Ne elevaretur cor Ezechiæ post incredibiles triumphos, infirmitate corporis visitatur et audit se esse moriturum, ut conversus ad Dominum, flectat sententiam. Cuncta Deus secutura præsciens ante sæcula, decrevit qualiter per sæcula disponantur. Statutum ergo est quantum in ipsa vita mortali temporaliter vivatur. Nam etsi annos quindecim Ezechiæ addidit Deus, eum tamen cum mori permisit, tunc præscivit eum esse moriturum. Cui cum mortis sententia dicta est, protinus ad ejus lacrymas vita est addita. Eo quidem tempore mori merebatur, qui elatus, Domino gratias pro inopinata victoria non reddidit, scilicet quia suæ justitiæ et meritis deputavit. Nec præfixum in præscientia Dei tempus vitæ prolongatum est, sed illud quod peccando amiserat, ex largitate Dei redditum erat. Qui cum moriturum prædixit, ante pœnitentiam illius præscivit. Convertit faciem ad parietem templi, quia ad templum ire non poterat. Parietem templi dicit juxta quod palatium erat, vel ad parietem absolute, ne lacrymas assistentibus ostentaret, ut tota mente Deum deprecaretur.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

20:1 Since Isaiah was already active in Hezekiah’s reign before Sennacherib moved to take Jerusalem, he was readily available to the king during that emergency (19:2).
• Set your affairs in order: Hezekiah’s illness was terminal.

Prophets of the Old Testament after 800 B.C.

If you ask someone today what biblical prophets did, they will likely tell you that they divinely foretold of future events. While this was often the case, most prophets in the Bible focused as much on “forthtelling” God’s messages as they did on “foretelling” the future. That is, their primary role was to simply “forthtell” divinely acquired messages to leaders and groups of people, and at times that included foretelling of coming judgment, blessing, rescue, etc. Also, though plenty of prophets (sometimes called “seers” in Scripture) often spoke in confrontational or eccentric language that put them at odds with kings and religious leaders, the biblical writers also applied the term prophet to people who communicated God’s messages in ways that many readers today might not think of as prophecy, such as worship leaders appointed by David to “prophesy with lyres, harps, and cymbals” (1 Chronicles 25:1). Similarly, the books of Joshua, Judges, 1 & 2 Samuel, and 1 & 2 Kings are typically categorized as history by Christians, but in the Hebrew canon they belong to the category of Former Prophets. The Lord raised up prophets throughout all of biblical history, from the giving of the law under Moses to the revelation of the last days by the apostle John, and the kings of Israel and Judah often recognized and supported specific people as official prophets of the royal court and consulted them to find out God’s perspective about official matters. Following is a list of nearly everyone designated as prophet or seer in the Old Testament and the primary area of their ministry.
