It took me about 20 minutes to read this passage. The first two chapters focus on two events in Hezekiah's rule; the people's revival (return to God) after that "first" Passover celebration during Hezekiah'sa reign, the tests that Hezekiah faced to display his faith. It is interesting to note that chapter 32 draws the contrast betweens Hezekiah's obedience and the terror of the invading army. Yet God allowed this to expose Hezekiah's faith.
The last chapter details the rule of Hezekiah's faithless son, Manassa. But like Ahab, the wicked king of Israel, when this king repented and turned to God, he was forgiven and resatored.
