Hezekiah was a DAVIDIC KING. All Davidic kings had a head over the household-a royal steward over the house. Hundreds of years after David died. Jesus is the FULFILLMENT of all of the Davidic kings. 1Kings 18:1 Long afterward, in the third year, the word of the LORD came to Elijah: Go, present yourself to Ahab, that I may send rain upon the earth. 2 So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab. Now the famine in Samaria was severe, 3 and Ahab had summoned Obadiah, ***master of his palace***, who greatly revered the LORD. 2Kings 15:1 In the twenty-seventh year* of Jeroboam, king of Israel, Azariah, son of Amaziah, king of Judah, became king. 2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jecholiah, from Jerusalem. 2Kings 15:3 He did what was right in the LORD’S sight, just as his father Amaziah had done, 4 though the high places did not disappear, and the people continued to sacrifice and to burn incense on the high places. 5 The LORD afflicted the king, and he was a leper until the day he died. He lived in a house apart, while Jotham, the king’s son, was ***master of the palace and ruled the people of the land.*** 2Kings 18:17 The king of Assyria sent the general, the lord chamberlain, and the commander* from Lachish with a great army to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They went up and came to Jerusalem, to the conduit of the upper pool on the highway of the fuller’s field, where they took their stand. 18 They called for the king, but Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, ***the master of the palace***, came out, along with Shebnah the scribe and the chancellor Joah, son of Asaph. Is. 22:20 On that day I will summon my servant Eliakim, son of Hilkiah; Is. 22:21 I will clothe him with your ROBE, and gird him with your sash, and GIVE OVER TO HIM your AUTHORITY. He shall be a FATHER to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. Is. 22:22 I will place the KEY of the House of David on his shoulder; when he opens, no one shall shut, when he shuts, no one shall open. Is. 22:23 I will fix him like a peg in a sure spot, to be a place of honor for his family; Is. 22:24 On him shall hang all the glory of his family: descendants and offspring, all the little dishes, from bowls to jugs. Matt. 16:17 Jesus said to him in reply, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. Matt. 16:18 And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. Matt. 16:19 I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Do you think Jesus knew His scriptures and whose kingdom He was bringing to fulfillment?
