Hezekiah is the son of Ahaz and Abi. Hezekiah means the Lord is my strength. He was the thirteenth king of the kingdom of Judah. Hezekiah began to reign at age 25 and reigned for 29 years. He was a good king. He removed the high places, broke down the images, and severed the groves. Hezekiah broke the copper serpent into pieces that Moses made because the Israelites burned incense and worshipped it. He trusted in the Lord God of Israel more than any king, before or after him. When he became sick and was about to die, he prayed to God, and God extended his life by fifteen years. During Hezekiah's reign, the sun's shadow moved 10 degrees backward on the sundial. When Hezekiah died, he received the highest honors because they buried him in one of the best sepulchers of the sons of David.
