isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth. - Free Bible Online

isaiah 38:19 "It is the living who give thanks to Thee, as I do today; A father tells his sons about Thy faithfulness.


      19. living . . . living--emphatic repetition, as in Isa 38:11, 17; his heart is so full of the main object of his prayer that, for want of adequate words, he repeats the same word.
      father to the children--one generation of the living to another. He probably, also, hints at his own desire to live until he should have a child, the successor to his throne, to whom he might make known and so perpetuate the memory of God's truth.
      truth--faithfulness to His promises; especially in Hezekiah's case, His promise of hearing prayer.
