18 "Don't let Hezekiah mislead you by saying, 'The Lord will rescue us!' Have the gods of any other nations ever saved their people from the king of Assyria? 19 What happened to the gods of Hamath and Arpad? And what about the gods of Sepharvaim? Did any god rescue Samaria from my power? 20 What god of any nation has ever been able to save its people from my power? So what makes you think that the Lord can rescue Jerusalem from me?"

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Isaiah 36:18-20

Isaiah 36 is very similar to 2 Kings 18:17-37. Thus, please see the commentary on 2 Kings 18.
