Sennacherib's Ignominy
Isaiah 37:38
And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god…


The sacred history would seem to imply that this disastrous end came at once; but here twenty years of ignominy count for nothing. "The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind to powder." Sennacherib died in , some twelve years after Hezekiah.

(B. Blake, B. D.)
