Sennacherib king of Assyria came

2 Chronicles 32:1

32:1 Sennacherib king of Assyria came. The invasion of Judah by the Assyrians began in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah’s reign (II Kings 18:13). Eight years earlier (II Kings 18:10,11), Israel had fallen to the Assyrians and had been carried captive into Assyria. Although it is not mentioned specifically, this invasion no doubt caused many refugees from the northern kingdom to flee south into Judah, a factor which would have contributed still further to the permanent representation of all twelve tribes of Israel in the land of Judah. Because of Hezekiah’s revival, however, the wicked Assyrian hordes would not be allowed by God to conquer Judah as they had Israel.
