Context — Sennacherib's Threat to Hezekiahgenerated

14Who among all the gods of these nations that my fathers devoted to destruction has been able to deliver his people from my hand? How then can your God deliver you from my hand?
15So now, do not let Hezekiah deceive you, and do not let him mislead you like this. Do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to deliver his people from my hand or from the hand of my fathers. How much less will your God deliver you from my hand!”
16And the servants of Sennacherib spoke further against the LORD God and against His servant Hezekiah.
17He also wrote letters mocking the LORD, the God of Israel, and saying against Him: “Just as the gods of the nations did not deliver their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my hand.”

2 Chronicles 32:15 shows Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attempting to intimidate the people of Judah by questioning their faith in God through Hezekiah. He emphasizes the futility of trusting in any god to save them from his power, citing the failure of other nations' gods to protect them from his hand. This moment reflects the broader theme of reliance on God amidst threats and challenges, as seen in other accounts of the kings of Israel and Judah.

The Key Word יַשִּׁיא֩, ya.Shi'generated

The verb נָשָׁא (nasha'), in the Hiphil form, means 'to deceive' or 'to lead astray.' It emphasizes the active role of the deceiver, in this case, Hezekiah, who Sennacherib accuses of misleading the people. The verb's moral implications highlight the seriousness of deception in leadership.

Sennacherib's use of this term suggests a calculated attempt to sway the people's allegiance away from their king and God, framing Hezekiah as a false hope. The choice of this verb underscores the tension between faith and fear during a time of crisis.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The main clause is governed by the finite verb יַשִּׁיא֩, he deceives, which is followed by two additional clauses that expand on the warning against Hezekiah. The structure emphasizes the imperative nature of Sennacherib's command not to believe Hezekiah.

The Hebrew word order places emphasis on the commands given to the people, with the verbs preceding their subjects, creating a sense of urgency and authority in Sennacherib's message.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates יַשִּׁיא֩ as ἀπατάτω (apatatō), which also means 'deceive.' This choice suggests a direct correspondence in the understanding of the act of deception, aligning closely with the Hebrew intent.

This translation indicates that the Greek translators recognized the moral weight of Sennacherib's words, emphasizing the seriousness of misleading the people.


In plain words — the whole versegenerated

2 Chronicles 32:15 records Sennacherib warning the people of Judah not to be deceived by their king Hezekiah. He argues that no god has been able to save any nation from his power, suggesting that their God will not be able to save them either. This moment captures the tension between faith in God and the fear of earthly powers.


Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

What does Sennacherib mean by saying Hezekiah will deceive the people?

Sennacherib is accusing Hezekiah of misleading the people into believing they will be saved by God, which he claims is impossible based on his own experiences with other nations.

Why does Sennacherib emphasize that no god has been able to save?

He emphasizes this to instill fear and doubt among the people, attempting to undermine their faith in God and loyalty to Hezekiah.

What is the significance of the phrase 'from my hand'?

This phrase underscores Sennacherib's perceived power and control over the nations he has conquered, suggesting that he is a formidable force that cannot be resisted.

This verse highlights the challenge of maintaining faith in God amidst threats and intimidation, a recurring theme in the narratives of the kings of Israel and Judah.

According to ancient conceptions the gods of strong nations were strong gods. Now the Assyrians had vanquished stronger nations than Judah, and therefore, as they ignorantly supposed, stronger deities than the God of Judah. (Some Hebrew MSS. and all the versions have the verb in the singular, which gives the sense, “much less will your god deliver you.”)

Hezekiah

Whom Jehovah has strengthened. (1.) Son of Ahaz (2 Kings 18:1; 2 Chr. 29:1), whom he succeeded on the throne of the kingdom of Judah. He reigned twenty-nine years (B.C. 726-697). The history of this king is contained in 2 Kings 18:20, Isa. 36-39, and 2 Chr. 29-32. He is spoken of as a great and good king. In public life he followed the example of his great-granfather Uzziah. He set himself to abolish idolatry from his kingdom, and among other things which he did for this end, he destroyed the “brazen serpent,” which had been removed to Jerusalem, and had become an object of idolatrous worship (Num. 21:9). A great reformation was wrought in the kingdom of Judah in…

Smith's Bible Dictionary

(the might of Jehovah). Twelfth king of Judah, son of the apostate Ahaz and Abi or Abijah, ascended the throne at the age of 25, B.C. 726. Hezekiah was one of the three most perfect kings of Judah. (2 Kings 18:5) Ecclus. 49:4. His first act was to purge and repair and reopen with splendid sacrifices and perfect ceremonial the temple. He also destroyed a brazen serpent, said to have been the one used by Moses in the miraculous healing of the Israelites, (Numbers 21:9) which had become an object of adoration. When the kingdom of Israel had fallen, Hezekiah invited the scattered inhabitants to a peculiar passover, which was continued for the unprecedented period of fourteen days.

American Tract Society Bible Dictionary

A pious king of Judah, succeeded his father Ahaz about 726 B. C., and died about 698 B. C. His history is contained in 2Ki 18:12-21 2Ch 29:1-32:33. Compare Isa 36:1-38:22. His reign is memorable for his faithful efforts to restore the worship of Jehovah; for his pride and presumption towards the Assyrians; for the distractions of their invading host in answer to his prayer; for his sickness and humiliation, and the prolonging of his life fifteen years of peace. He was succeeded by the unworthy Manasseh.

The Greek ischuo, as in Lu 13:24; Joh 21:6, refers always to the first of the above meanings.

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

ov:

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man.

אֵת (eth) is primarily a grammatical marker in Hebrew, indicating the definite direct object of a verb. It is not translated into English and typically precedes nouns that are definite. The word is derived from a demonstrative sense of entity, related to the Hebrew word for 'self.' Its Aramaic equivalent is יָת (yat).
