and honour; both from his subjects, and the nations around him:
and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of pleasant jewels: which were houses both for rich and curious things, and for armour, he showed to the ambassadors of Babylon; see Gill on Isaiah 39:2.
HIS RICHES AND WORKS. (2-Chronicles 32:27-33)
he had exceeding much riches and honour--(compare 2-Kings 20:13; Isaiah 39:2). A great portion of his personal wealth, like that of David and Uzziah, consisted in immense possessions of agricultural and pastoral produce. Besides, he had accumulated large treasures in gold, silver, and precious things, which he had taken as spoils from the Philistines, and which he had received as presents from neighboring states, among which he was held in great honor as a king under the special protection of Heaven. Much of his great wealth he expended in improving his capital, erecting forts, and promoting the internal benefit of his kingdom.
Hezekiah's riches; concluding estimate of his reign; his death and burial. - 2-Chronicles 32:27. Like Jehoshaphat (2-Chronicles 17:5; 2-Chronicles 18:1), Solomon (2-Chronicles 1:12), and David (1-Chronicles 29:28), Hezekiah attained to riches and glory, and made unto himself treasure-chambers for silver, gold, precious stones, and spices, shields, and all manner of splendid furniture. The מגנּים are named instead of weapons in general. The collection of them brings to recollection the כּליו בּית (2-Kings 20:13 and Isaiah 39:2).
