This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Ki_19:29 And this [shall be] a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits thereof.
Ver. 29. Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves.] Saphiach, hoc est, sponte nature; and in the second year, Sachish, i.e., sponte renatum, that which springeth of the same, haply increasing the more, because it had been so beaten down the year before by the Assyrian army. God’s plenty in the land, notwithstanding the sabbatical year, the fifteenth jubilee, say some, and the enemy’s abode and waste there made, should be a sign for confirmation of the truth of God’s promise.
