HEZEKIAH AND THE ANGEL OF THE LORD YESHUA

2Ki 18:1-13 LOGOS 1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. 2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah. 3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done. 4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the bronze serpent which Moses had made, because until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it; and he called it Nehushtan. 5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel. And after him there was none like him among the kings of Judah, nor among those that were before him. 6 And he held fast to the Lord, he did not depart from following Him; and he kept His commandments, as many as He commanded Moses. 7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook. And he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and did not serve him. 8 He struck the Philistines, even to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city. 9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Hezekiah (this is the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel), that Shalmaneser king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it. 10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, (this is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, when Samaria was taken). 11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the River Gozan, and in the mountains of the Medes; 12 because they did not heed the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed His covenant, in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and they would neither hear nor do them. 13 And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the strong cities of Judah, and took them.
