1. Hezekiah, in mourning, sends to Isaiah to pray for them.
6. Isaiah comforts them.
8. Sennacherib, going to encounter Tirhakah, sends a blasphemous letter to Hezekiah.

(33) He came.--So the versions and Isaiah, rightly. The Heb. text here has "he cometh," or "shall come." With the thought comp. 2Kings 19:28 : "I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest."

And shall not come into this city.--And unto this city he shall not come (2Kings 19:32).

Verse 33. - By the way that he came, by the same shall he return (see ver. 28). Not merely, "he shall fail of his object" (Bahr, Keil), "he shall return disappointed;" but, literally, he shall retrace his steps, he shall quit Palestine by the same route by which he entered it - the coast route along the maritime plain, which left Jerusalem on the right at a distance of forty miles. And shall not come into - rather, unto - this city, saith the Lord. An emphatic ending (comp. Isaiah 22:14; Isaiah 45:13; Isaiah 54:17; Isaiah 55:8; Isaiah 59:20; Isaiah 65:25; Isaiah 66:21, 23).
