2 Kings18:5
2Ki 18:5
The verdict, “after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah,” refers to Hezekiah’s confidence in God (בּטח), in which he had no equal, whereas in the case of Josiah his conscientious adherence to the Mosaic law is extolled in the same words (2Ki 23:25); so that there is no ground for saying that there is a contradiction between our verse and 2Ki 23:25 (Thenius).
