Commentary
And the Lord hearkened to Hezekiah,.... Heard his prayer, and accepted of it, and granted what he desired:
and healed his people; that is, forgave their sins, as Kimchi interprets it; forgiveness being expressed by healing, for which he refers to
Psa 41:4
to which may be added
Psa 103:3
and which was known either by a prophet sent to declare it, or by not punishing them for their offence.
