Context
32:12 Hezekiah is the one who eliminated 6  the Lord’s 7  high places and altars and then told Judah and Jerusalem, “At one altar you must worship and offer sacrifices.”

1 tn Heb “and Ben Hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of the armies which belonged to him against the cities of Israel.”

2 tn Heb “They struck down.”

3 sn In the parallel passage in 1 Kgs 15:20, this city’s name appears as Abel Beth Maacah. These appear to be variant names for the same place.

4 tn Heb “his heart was high [i.e., proud] to destroy.”

5 tn Or “was unfaithful to.”

6 tn Heb “Did not he, Hezekiah, eliminate…?” This rhetorical question presupposes a positive reply (“yes, he did”) and so has been translated here as a positive statement.

7 tn Heb “his”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
