Isaiah Chapters 36-37 (Bible Study)

Hezekiah’s Faith and the Fall of Assyria.
In Isaiah 36-37, Sennacherib, the Assyrian king, threatens Jerusalem and ridicules Hezekiah’s reliance on the Lord for deliverance, demanding unconditional surrender. Despite Hezekiah's initial weakness in bribing Sennacherib, he ultimately turns to God in prayer, seeking divine help against the Assyrian threat. God assures Hezekiah that Sennacherib will not succeed in capturing Jerusalem and miraculously destroys the Assyrian army, leading to Sennacherib's eventual murder. This narrative emphasizes faith, divine assistance, and the consequences of arrogance against God's people.
