Hezekiah
A godly king of Judah who trusted in the Lord and oversaw a major religious reformation.
Hezekiah was the thirteenth king of Judah, noted for his faithfulness in removing high places and restoring temple worship. He is best remembered for his reliance on God during the Assyrian siege under Sennacherib and his miraculous recovery from a terminal illness. His reign serves as a pivotal example of national repentance and divine deliverance in the face of overwhelming opposition.
