2 KINGS—NOTE ON 2 Kings 18:1 Hezekiah. In 715 B.C., seven years after the fall of the northern kingdom of Israel, Hezekiah comes to the throne in Judah. He resembles David more closely than any other king so far. He will succeed in reforming Judean worship. Hezekiah’s trust in God will be vindicated when, in 701, the Assyrians fail to conquer Jerusalem.
