Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 2 Kings 19:17
Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,
17. the kings of Assyria have destroyed [R.V. laid waste ] the nations ] The change is in conformity with the rendering in Isaiah, where the Hebrew, however, says ‘ all the countries and their land’ (R.V.) The Hebrew word translated ‘destroyed’ in the next verse is different from this.
