Subject: Hezekiah's death and burial — parallel regnal summary

Reference Type: Direct Quotation
Connection Method(s): None
Significance: These are parallel regnal summaries for Hezekiah. Both record his death, burial, and Manasseh's succession. Kings uniquely mentions the Siloam tunnel ("the pool and the conduit"), while Chronicles uniquely notes that Hezekiah was buried "in the upper section of the tombs of the sons of David" and "all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem honored him at his death" (2 Chr 32:33). This exceptional burial honor — placement in the upper, most prestigious tombs — reflects the Chronicler's high evaluation of Hezekiah. Both cite written records as sources: Kings references "the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah," Chronicles cites "the vision of Isaiah the prophet."
