2Ki 19:37 | MHM | STEP | v. 37 : Later, while Sennacherib was worshipping in the temple of his god Nisroch, two of his sons killed him with the sword (2 Kings 19:37 ). They escaped, and another son, Esarhaddon, became king. Sennacherib’s death was a judgment from God for his pride and idolatry. He had refused to learn from God’s power and continued to worship false gods, so his end came in violence, even in the place where he sought protection.
