There's an old saying that say's, "You can lead them to the water but you can't make them drink!"  That is exactly what God has been doing with His children Israel.  He leads them, but they rebel.  With so many bad examples in the world, Hezekiah is doing what he can to stay focused on the Lord.  We'll learn more about this godly King from the continuation of our study in 2 Kings chapter 18.
