Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - So the posts (see note on ver. 1). The remnant of you... escaped... of Assyria. Hezekiah had, no doubt, already made his account with the fact that the injured and crushed state of the northern kingdom might be of salutary omen for the attempt on his part to bring them to a sense of their past sins, specially perhaps of omission. Of the calamities of Israel, and their captivity in large part, and in the rest subjection by tribute to Assyria, there is clear testimony in 2 Kings 15:29; 2 Kings 17:1-6.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) The posts.--The runners-- i.e., couriers (???????). The Syriac uses the Latin word Tabellarii, "letter- carriers," which the Arabic mistakes for "folk of Tiberias"! The soldiers of the body-guard seem to have acted as royal messengers.From the king.--From the hand of the king.And according to the commandment.--The construction appears to be: they went with the letters . . . and according to the king's order. The LXX. and Vulg. omit and, but the Syriac has it.And he will return.--That he may return unto the survivors that are left unto you from the hand of the hings of Assyria.Remnant.--P?letah.--That the word really means survivors appears from comparison of the Assyrian balatu, "to be alive;" bull?tu, "life."The kings of Assyria.--See 2Chronicles 28:16; 2Chronicles 28:20. The words are a rhetorical reference to Tiglath-pileser's invasion of the northern kingdom, and the depopulation of Galilee and Gilead. The chronicler's language may have been influenced also by recollection of the last fatal inroad of Shalmaneser II., in the fourth year of Hezekiah (2Kings 18:9). (See 2Kings 15:29.) . . .
