Significance: Both texts provide closing summaries for Hezekiah's reign. In 2 Kings 20:20, the narrator highlights "the pool and the conduit by which he brought water into the city" — Hezekiah's famous water tunnel (the Siloam tunnel). The Chronicler in 2 Chronicles 32:32 cites "the vision of Isaiah the prophet" as a source and notes Hezekiah's "good deeds" (חֲסָדָיו, chasadav, "acts of steadfast love"). Both share the standard formula of source citation, death, and burial. The different emphases — engineering achievement (Kings) versus prophetic record and piety (Chronicles) — reflect each historian's characteristic interests.
