Righteous King Hezekiah, one of the last kings of Judah during the times of
the First Temple, encouraged the nation with the stirring words in this verse.
His faith was well-founded, and the next morning, they looked over the walls to
see the once powerful Assyrian army devastated and dispersed, all without a
fight (II Kings 19:35). May the Almighty continue to protect today's Defenders
of Israel, the soldiers of the IDF.
