Hezekiah was a king known for his dedication to God and his efforts to lead Judah back to faithfulness. His reign was marked by significant religious reforms and a strong defense against Assyrian threats. Upon his death, Hezekiah was buried with honor among the tombs of David's descendants, a testament to his respected position and the legacy he left. The people of Judah and Jerusalem paid tribute to him, indicating the deep respect and gratitude they felt for his leadership. This moment of transition, as Manasseh takes the throne, underscores the continuity of the Davidic line and the hope for continued guidance under God's covenant. The verse serves as a reminder of the impact a faithful leader can have on their people and the importance of leaving a legacy of righteousness and devotion.
Hezekiah rested with his ancestors and was buried on the hill where the tombs of David's descendants are. All Judah and the people of Jerusalem honored him when he died. And Manasseh his son succeeded him as king.
