Isaiah 37

Hezekiah tears his clothes and seeks Isaiah's counsel amid Assyrian threats; Isaiah prophesies YHWH's rebuke of Sennacherib, promising a sign of Judah's remnant taking root and divine defense of Jerusalem.[1][2][3] YHWH sends a mal'ak who strikes 185,000 Assyrians dead overnight, causing Sennacherib to withdraw and later fall by the sword.[1][4]
