Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 33. - In the chiefest of the sepulchres; literally, in the ascent of the sepulchres; i.e. in new burial-places, either on the ascent to the old ones, probably now full, or else above, them.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(33) And they buried him . . . honour at his death.--Statements peculiar to the chronicler. They go to prove an authority besides the canonical books of Kings.The chiefest.--Rather, the ascent--i.e., the way up to the royal tombs. (Comp. 2Chronicles 20:16.) "The sons of David" are the kings of the house of David. Hezekiah may have chosen a favourite spot for his burial-place; but, as his successors Manasseh, Amon, and Josiah likewise, were not laid in the tombs of the kings, it would appear that the old royal sepulchres were full.Did him honour at his death.--The phrase, "did him honour" ('as- k?bod lo) occurs here only. (Comp. "give honour to," 1Samuel 6:5; Psalm 29:1.) Probably a great burning of spices was made in honour of Hezekiah as of Asa. (See 2Chronicles 16:14; 2Chronicles 21:19.) . . .
