2 Kings 19:15

And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest [between] the cherubims, thou art the God, [even] thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.

Ver. 15. And Hezekiah prayed.] He made intercession to God against Sennacherib, as once Elias did against Israel, Rom 11:2 the Christian Church against Julian the apostate, and against Arius the heretic; whose death was precationis opus, non morbi, saith Socrates Scholasticus; a the effect of prayers, not of any disease.

Thou art the God.] "Thou," here, is emphatical and exclusive.
