27 " 'But I know where you are and when you come and go and how you rage against me.
27 But I know thy abode,
27 "But I know your sitting down and your going out and coming in, and your raging against me.
27 I know when you sit down, when you come and when you go; And, yes, I've marked every one of your temper tantrums against me.
27 'But I know your dwelling place, Your going out and your coming in, And your rage against Me.
27 "But I know you well- where you stay and when you come and go. I know the way you have raged against me.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Kings 19:27
Commentary on 2 Kings 19:20-34
(Read 2 Kings 19:20-34)
All Sennacherib's motions were under the Divine cognizance. God himself undertakes to defend the city; and that person, that place, cannot but be safe, which he undertakes to protect. The invasion of the Assyrians probably had prevented the land from being sown that year. The next is supposed to have been the sabbatical year, but the Lord engaged that the produce of the land should be sufficient for their support during those two years. As the performance of this promise was to be after the destruction of Sennacherib's army, it was a sign to Hezekiah's faith, assuring him of that present deliverance, as an earnest of the Lord's future care of the kingdom of Judah. This the Lord would perform, not for their righteousness, but his own glory. May our hearts be as good ground, that his word may strike root therein, and bring forth fruit in our lives.
