The Assyrian empire has ravaged the south as well, leaving only Jerusalem and the surrounding hamlets free from exile. The kingdom of Judah needs some good luck, and they receive it in King Hezekiah. Hezekiah is acknowledged as one of the greatest kings in the Southern Kingdom. Because of his greatness, the stories in the next few chapters appear three times in different forms: here, in Isaiah, and in II Chronicles. Given Hezekiah\u2019s important role, it makes sense he receives a grand introduction.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He did what was pleasing to the LORD, just as his father David had done. He abolished the shrines and smashed the pillars and cut down the sacred post. He also broke into pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made, for until that time the Israelites had been offering sacrifices to it; it was called Nehushtan (verses 3-4).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hezekiah is compared to David and he rids Judah of idol worship. But, then the text includes the fact that he destroyed the copper snake that Moses formed in the wilderness. Why is this act emphasized?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Mishnah in Rosh Hashanah praises Hezekiah for destroying the copper snake. This seems odd given that the copper snake was forged by Moses himself back in the wilderness. The snake was an important artifact. The answer given is that the copper snake had been used as idol worship. This explains why it was a noble action, but why is it included here?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps the text is setting up a direct contrast with the previous chapter and the destruction of the North. The greatest sin of the North was the worship of the two golden calves. King after king after king refused to remove these idols that dated back to the beginning of their kingdom. Now, King Jeroboam also had in mind the Golden Calf of the wilderness when he fashioned those in the North. He wanted to reach back into the wilderness period and hoped to make something bad into \u201cgood\u201d for himself. Subsequent kings kept these symbols of the North.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By destroying the copper snake, Hezekiah was sending a specific message. In the South, we do things differently. If something becomes a hindrance or an obstacle, we get rid of it. It does not matter that it was fashioned in the wilderness by Moses himself at the direction of God. We will not end up like our cousins in the North, over nostalgia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>image:\u00a0Buonarroti, Michelangelo - The Brazen Serpent, 1511<\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":114685,"alt":"","title":"-645740d2a9f1e--645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass bronze_Serpent.png","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/png","url":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png.png","width":1160,"height":770,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png-150x150.png","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png-300x199.png","medium-width":300,"medium-height":199,"medium_large":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png-768x510.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":510,"large":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png-1024x680.png","large-width":1024,"large-height":680,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png.png","1536x1536-width":1160,"1536x1536-height":770,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png.png","2048x2048-width":1160,"2048x2048-height":770,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png.png","post_full_size-width":1160,"post_full_size-height":770,"home_baner":"https:\/\/cetwpuploads.blob.core.windows.net\/wp929\/uploads\/2023\/05\/645740d2a9f1e-645740d2a9f1f2Kings18-Michelangel0-brass-bronze_Serpent.png-633x420.png","home_baner-width":633,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"Hezekiah\u2019s Bold Initiative","tile_main_caption_size":"1","tile_sub_caption":"He doesn\u2019t idolize anything -

It was called Nehushtan\u201d (II Kings 18:4). It will be recalled that the Israelites had ungratefully complained to God and to Moses about having nothing to eat in the desert except the miraculous manna. In punishment, God sent <em>seraph<\/em> serpents that bit the people causing many to die. When the Israelites repented and begged for Moses to intercede, at God\u2019s instruction, Moses made the bronze serpent that he mounted on a standard. Anyone bitten by a serpent would look at the bronze serpent and be healed (Numbers 21:5-9).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talmud Bavli Berakhot 10b records that the people approved of Hekeziah\u2019s breaking up of the bronze serpent, recognizing it had come to be used as an object of idolatry. The Midrash (Yalqut Shimoni 1:764) relates the unique word Nehushtan to the slightly more frequent word Nehushtayim, a dual form of Nehoshet (copper, bronze). In Judges 16:2, Nehushtayim refer to the \u201cfetters of bronze\u201d which the Philistines used to bind Samson. Clearly, both Nehushtan and Nehushtayim have derogatory implications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Midrash goes on to relate Nehushtan to Nahash, the biblical word for snake: Whoever dies by snakebite dies in this life but may still be reborn in the world to come. But whoever burns incense to a snake-god in this world will have no life in the world to come. Therefore, it was best that the Nehushtan bronze serpent should have been ground to dust in this world by Hezekiah. The \u201cbronze serpent\u201d that Moses made in the Desert seems to have been mistakenly worshipped by the Israelites as a kind of snake-god (see Metzudat David to II Kings 18:4). Indeed, snake worship was widespread in the Ancient Near East and elsewhere.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Significantly, the Midrash (Tanhuma Buber Huqqat 45 and parallels) connects the serpent with the sin of <em>leshon ha-ra<\/em> (the evil use of speech, slander): The serpent in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:1-14) was the first to engage in <em>leshon ha-ra<\/em> , by inciting Eve to cause Adam to sin. And so, the serpent was punished by eating only dust until the end of time (Genesis 3:14, Isaiah 65:25) Indeed, the Israelites who spoke wickedly against Moses when they had only Manna to eat were punished with \u201cthe fiery serpents\u201d (<em>ha-nahashim ha-seraphim<\/em>) that the Lord sent against them. The same Midrash interprets the word \u201c<em>seraphim<\/em>\u201d (fiery) to teach a moral lesson. The \u201cfiery serpents consume the soul\u201d, suggesting that Leshon Ha-Ra is spiritually destructive for whoever engages in this transgression.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:

His remarkable spiritual character seems to me to be underappreciated.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His greatness is described as follows: <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He trusted only in the Lord the God of Israel; there was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those before him. He clung to the Lord; he did not turn away from following Him, but kept the commandments that the Lord had given to Moses (II Kings 18:5-6).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hezekiah was unique among the Kings of Judah in his pure-hearted commitment to God. Even the better kings let syncretism creep into the kingdom and didn\u2019t eradicate the idols that were worshipped alongside God. Solomon himself allowed his wives to bring their pagan practices into the land.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But Hezekiah was uncompromising in his monotheism. The most striking example of this was that \u201che broke into pieces the bronze serpent that Moshes had made, for until that time the Israelites had been offering sacrifices to it.\u201d (v.4)<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This serpent, you will recall, was described in Numbers 21: 8-9. It was a kind of a talisman that God told Moses to make. If people looked at it, they were healed from the bites of snakes that God had previously sent as a punishment.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What a venerated relic this must have been! A physical thing made by Moses himself on God\u2019s instructions! Can one imagine the precious sense of communion with God and the roots of the Jewish people that it must have given? Think too of the political legitimacy that possession of this totem would have conferred on the Kings of Judah, as a sign of the direct connection between them and Moses.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet when Hezekiah saw that people were worshipping the snake as a substitute for God, he smashed it to bits. The historical value of the relic, its significance as a priceless piece of our heritage and its emotional power to evoke Israel\u2019s ancient origins were worth nothing to him if the object were treated as an idol.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hezekiah\u2019s act sets us a challenging standard of faith even today. Can we revere holy sites objects and places that connect us to great religious figures and events of the past while maintaining the pure-hearted consciousness to worship God alone?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>image by: Ben Schachter, courtesy of the

I wondered. It\u2019s my name.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since childhood I had been told repeatedly that \u201cAvi is a boy\u2019s name.\u201d Every new person I met asked me \u201cwhat is your name short for?\u201d I was mistakenly put in boys\u2019 bunks on multiple occasions. Once, a substitute teacher sent me out of the class for lying when I insisted that my name really is \u201cAvi\u201d. At the start of the ulpan semester, I fought with the I.D. department to translate my name into Hebrew spelled as \u201cAvi\u201d when their first attempt had inexplicably added multiple yuds in an effort to write something that would better match the female-looking person in the photo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea that Avi should be associated with a male is reasonable. Afterall, it is Hebrew for the phrase \u201cmy father.\u201d So, it was with great surprise that I entered the classroom the next day to an apology from my ulpan teacher. She handed me a Tanakh open to Kings II, Chapter 18, verse 2. She began to read: \u201cIn the third year of King Hoshea son of Elah of Israel, Hezekiah son of King Ahaz of Judah became king. He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years; his mother\u2019s name was Avi daughter of Zechariah.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There it was. A biblical female Avi. And not just any female, but the mother of King Hezekiah (He\u2019s one of the good kings!). I was surprised. I was surprised to have found this biblical namesake, and also surprised by how much I cared. I had developed a pride in my unexpected name. I had created narratives for myself about why the name suited me and why I loved it. And yet, seeing my name on the page of the Tanakh was powerful and exciting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This verse offered not only the rightness of a female Avi, but the promise of motherhood. The biblical Avi is the mother of Hezekiah.

What did Hezekiah do to warrant this description?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First and foremost, \u201che abolished the shrines\u2026\u201d (vs. 4). Those local shrines had been a thorn in the side of Judaean religious life since just one generation after Solomon built the Holy Temple: the people of Judah \u201cdid what was displeasing to the Lord\u2026 built for themselves shrines\u2026\u201d (I Kings 14:22-23) in a drastic rejection of the longing for a central place of worship that David modeled; the divine approval rating of every later king takes into account their continued existence. (See e.g. I Kings 22:43-44, II Kings 12:3-4, and more). Those kings who allowed the people to worship at backyard shrines \u2013 even if it was God they worshipped \u2013 could not possibly be said to measure up to David.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, there are other measures of righteousness \u2013 and of comparison to David. National religious guidance is only one element of a king\u2019s spiritual life; we read on a more personal level that Hezekiah \u201ctrusted only in the LORD\u201d (v. 5) and \u201cclung to the Lord\u201d (v. 6) And since God requires more of any Jew than general \u201ctrust\u201d and \u201cclinging,\u201d we further find that this king \u201ckept the commandments that the Lord had given to Moses\u201d (ibid.) Ultimately, \u201cthere was none like him among all the kings of Judah after him, nor among those before him\u201d (v. 5).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But wait \u2013 didn\u2019t we just read that Hezekiah was like David? How does that comparison fit with the assertion that he was unique among (greater than) all predecessors and successors?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some commentators assert that indeed, Hezekiah surpassed David \u2013 because David sinned (see I Kings 15:5) and Hezekiah never did. Odd, since the Talmud asserts (Berachot 10a) \u2013 and so do some of the same commentators \u2013 that Hezekiah did sin, by refusing to marry and produce children.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Others maintain David\u2019s superiority, either by emphasizing the mention of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>kings of Judah<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(David and Solomon ruled a united Jewish kingdom, not Judah, and so they are excluded from the comparison) or by applying the comparison only to the specific trait just mentioned: trust in God. As Malbim points out regarding the latter approach, Josiah is also described as greater than all who came before him \u2013 specifically regarding repentance (23:25). We might argue then that general comparisons are beside the point: each king who followed in God\u2019s ways did so in his own way, and each stands out as a unique role model.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The specific judgments behind the prophet\u2019s comparisons ultimately belong solely to God \u2013 but their mention reminds us of our vast potential: even if we sin, our sin might not rate in comparison to others\u2019; and even if we think we generally don\u2019t rate at all, we might possess (and hone) some trait that shines above all else \u2013 for all we know, even above the beloved King David himself.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image: King Hezekiah on a 17th century painting by unknown artist in the choir of Sankta Maria kyrka in \u00c5hus, Sweden \/ wikipedia<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":64317,"alt":"","title":"2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus.jpg","width":800,"height":1153,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus-208x300.jpg","medium-width":208,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus-710x1024.jpg","medium_large-width":710,"medium_large-height":1024,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus-710x1024.jpg","large-width":710,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus.jpg","1536x1536-width":800,"1536x1536-height":1153,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus.jpg","2048x2048-width":800,"2048x2048-height":1153,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus.jpg","post_full_size-width":800,"post_full_size-height":1153,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/2kings18-Hezekiah-\u00c5hus-291x420.jpg","home_baner-width":291,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"Hezekiah -

He has just witnessed the destruction of the Kingdom of Israel and their exile at the hands of the Assyrians and is determined to save his Kingdom of Judah from this same fate. Immediately upon taking the throne from his father Ahaz, he begins to destroy all forms of idolatry in Judah. While we have read about other \u201cgood Kings\u201d in Judah who have acted similarly, Hezekiah stands out among these iconoclasts. He not only destroys the many idolatrous monuments and high places, but he also smashes the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>nahash hanehoshet<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(copper serpent), which since the time of Moses had been a sanctioned ritual object within Israelite culture. In fact, this copper serpent had been constructed at the behest of God.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Numbers 21 recounts how the people of Israel were suffering from lethal snakebites in the desert \u2013 yet another creative punishment for their desert kvetching. When the people cried out to Moses for divine intervention to end this affliction, God suggests that Moses craft a snake that the people will be able to look towards when they seek healing. Moses makes a copper snake and all goes as planned. While this short episode comes to a swift end, the copper snake lived on as a reminder of God\u2019s miraculous healing powers and was preserved by the Kings of Israel and Judah. That is, until the reign of Hezekiah.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why did Hezekiah feel the need to destroy this copper snake that had served the people well since the time of Moses? Why, if God considered this a useful tool for the people of Israel in the time of Moses, did Hezekiah deem it threatening in his time?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It appears that God recognized the people\u2019s unhealthy dependence on Moses as a mediator between them and God, which began already in their first encounter with God at Sinai and their subsequent Golden Calf incident. This copper snake was thus a tool employed to wean them off Moses and encourage their more direct reliance on God. However, by the time of Hezekiah\u2019s reign, the people had become so engrossed in idolatry they ceased to see the copper snake as a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>vehicle<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for worship of the true God, but as a god itself. What had once been a useful ritual object was now furthering their estrangement from the divine. Hezekiah recognized this shift in his people and acted swiftly to destroy the copper snake. In so doing, he boldly ended a custom that had been part of Israel\u2019s history since the time of Moses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are our ritual objects and vehicles for connecting with God today? What happens when our cultural artifacts and long-standing rituals no longer serve their original religious purpose or even worse, become cause for spiritual alienation? Are we bold enough, like Hezekiah, to pivot accordingly?

a post-idolatry Israel, the snake re-assumes its rightful place","post_main_content_content":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">King Hezekiah is the anti-idolatry hero we did not know we needed. After Gideon smashed the altars of Ba\u2019al worshippers, Samson brought down the temple of Philistine god Dagon, and earlier kings like Jehu and Jehoash destroyed the idols of their wicked predecessors, Hezekiah arrived to cut down the idol built by none other than Moses.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The origin of this idol is the story told in Numbers 21. The Israelites grew impatient with wandering in the desert and disgusted with the food provided for them. They complained, and God sent \u201cseraph\u201d snakes to kill them. After the people confessed their sin and pleaded to be rescued from the snakes, God commanded Moses to mount a snake statue on a pole, so that people who are bitten by snakes may look upon it and be healed. Moses created and mounted a copper snake, and people were healed by glancing at it. This solution seemed to echo<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.929.org.il\/lang\/en\/author\/38102\/post\/61055\/post\/47912\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ancient Mesopotamian and Greek traditions that presented snakes as a symbol of healing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In II Kings 18, we learn that the copper snake remained in Israel some 800 years after Moses\u2019 death, and that people had since begun to worship it as a god called <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nehushtan<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (derived from <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nahash<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the Hebrew word for snake). Hezekiah, in his zeal to eradicate idolatry from his kingdom, cut down Moses\u2019 own handiwork. The medieval commentator Radak offered some context for this act, explaining that previous righteous kings had no cause to destroy Nehushtan, because it did not become an object of worship until the reign of Hezekiah\u2019s father Ahaz. Although the snake had been preserved to commemorate the miracle of Numbers 21, \u201cit is better to burn [the snake] and let the miracle be forgotten than to leave the snake undisturbed and have Israel err on its account today or tomorrow.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Hezekiah\u2019s uncompromising view, neither the copper snake\u2019s impressive pedigree nor its educational purpose mattered any longer. Because people used the snake as a means of idolatry, it had to go. It was irredeemable.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unsurprisingly, the snake has been redeemed. The symbol of the Israel Defense Forces\u2019 Medical Corps features a snake wrapped around a sword.

The IDF\u2019s Bible citation may be the iconographic equivalent of posting an article on Facebook before reading the whole thing. Or it may be read as faithful to Hezekiah\u2019s own message: Moses\u2019 snake had to be cast away once it became an instrument of sin, but only for so long as it remained an instrument of sin. In a post-idolatry Israel, the snake reassumes its rightful place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image: IDF medical corp symbol from the early 50s \/

We learn from Hezekiah eradicating the serpent while the others who came before him did not do so, that the same item which was not idolatrous (and even commanded by God) during Moses\u2019 days and after, can become so by the time of Hezekiah. If so, potential idolatry was allowed some space, as much as would be ok so as not to cause too much harm. It also means that idolatry is not the thing itself, but the importance and attitude given to a particular item. Which means that if our current definition of idols is what it was 2000 years ago, we might be missing something. Indeed, in spite of Hezekiah\u2019s just and successful fight at the time, the healing snake, of course, did not disappear. It showed up in Greek mythology too and still symbolizes health and healing throughout the world. Whether we worship it and what it stands for or not, is another question.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":64326,"alt":"","title":"2kings18-hez and

Three were acceptable [to the Sages] and three were unacceptable.\u201d The aforementioned shattering of the bronze serpent was among the acceptable deeds; cutting down the Temple doors to pay the Assyrian tribute was unacceptable.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, while Hezekiah surpassed his predecessors and successors in his devotion to God, it is likely that they had set such a low standard that exceeding them still left him open to legitimate criticism in other regards and impotent before the Assyrian threat. We shall have occasion to return to this source and this observation anon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>image:\u00a0Remnants of the\u00a0<a title=\"Broad Wall (Jerusalem)\"

But both the Tanakh and the rabbis highlight a further passion of this righteous king: his fervor for Torah study.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[The Talmud speaks of] the oil of Hezekiah, which burned in the synagogues and schools. What did he do? He planted a sword by the door of the schoolhouse and proclaimed, \"He who will not study the Torah will be pierced with the sword.\" Search was made from Dan to Beer Sheba, and no ignoramus was found; from Gabbath to Antipatris \u2014 no boy or girl, man or woman was found who was not thoroughly versed in the laws of ritual purity and impurity (Sanhedrin 94b).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hezekiah enforces national Torah study. His methods are admittedly violently coercive, but the product is a civilian population that is thoroughly versed in the minutiae of Jewish law. Of course, this is an aggadic tradition. But what are its roots? Is there any biblical evidence of Hezekiah's interest in spreading Torah knowledge? The book of Proverbs provides some evidence of Hezekiah's commitment to study:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These following are also the proverbs of Solomon, compiled by the men of Hezekiah king of Judah (25:1).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This verse introduces chapters 25-31 of the book of Proverbs, and indicates that the \"original,\" pre-Hezekiah book of Proverbs comprised only twenty-four chapters. But Hezekiah published an \"expanded edition\" of the book, including as yet unpublished writings of Solomon. The conclusion we should come to is that Hezekiah invested in the publication of wisdom literature, such as Proverbs. His interest was the promotion of national Torah education. Similarly, the Talmud states: \"Hezekiah and his company wrote Isaiah, Proverbs, Song of Songs, and Ecclesiastes\" (Bava Batra 15a). The impression is that Hezekiah actively pursued the writing, publication, and distribution of manuscripts that predated his time. The works mentioned are all literature that delve deeply into the religious experience. Hezekiah's legacy is a profound enthusiasm for religious observance and study.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alex Israel, <em>II Kings: In a Whirlwind<\/em>, Maggid Books, 2019, Hezekiah\u2019s Religious Restoration\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":63310,"alt":"","title":"Alex Israel -
