to stop 2Kgs 20:20; Isa 22:8-11


4
who stopped This was prudently done; for, without water, how could an immense army subsist in ar arid country? No doubt the Assyrian army suffered much through this; as a Christian army did, through the same cause, 1,800 years afterwards.

12
Hath not 2Chr 31:1; 2Kgs 18:4, 2Kgs 18:22; Isa 36:7

taken away This was artfully malicious. Many of the people had sacrificed to Jehovah on high places (2Chr 31:1); and Hezekiah had removed them, as incentives to idolatry. Hence Rabshakeh insinuates that by so doing he had offended Jehovah, deprived the people of their religious rights, and that, consequently, he could neither expect the blessing of God, nor the cooperation of the people.
