📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurred around 701 BC during King Hezekiah's reign when the Assyrian Empire under Sennacherib was conquering cities throughout the region. Lachish was a major fortified city that the Assyrians had already captured, and now they were advancing toward Jerusalem. The location mentioned - by the water conduit and fuller's field - was strategically chosen as it was visible from Jerusalem's walls and near the city's water supply.
