How preachers through history handled this text

6 public-domain excerpts on 2 Chronicles 29, from the church fathers to the Puritans.

Matthew Henry 3 Alexander MacLaren 2 John Wesley 1

“When Hezekiah came to the crown, he applied at once to work reform. Those who begin with God, begin at the right end of their work, and it will prosper accordingly. Those that turn their backs upon God's ordinances, may truly be said to forsake God himself. There are still such neglects, if the word be not duly read and opened, for that was signified by the lighting the lamps, and also if prayers and praise be not offered up, for that was signified by the burning incense. …”

— Matthew Henry, Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise), on 2 Chronicles 29:1–19 (Public Domain)
