📚 Contexto Histórico
During the reign of King Hezekiah of Judah, the Assyrian Empire under King Sennacherib was aggressively threatening Jerusalem, sending envoys with messages that mocked God and demanded surrender. Hezekiah's act of tearing his clothes and covering himself with sackcloth was a traditional ancient Near Eastern expression of deep mourning, repentance, and desperation in the face of imminent danger. This event is part of the broader biblical narrative where God ultimately delivers Judah, showcasing His sovereignty over nations.
