2 CHRONICLES 32:33 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the chiefest of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.”
Hezekiah's sleep with his fathers, his honor among his people and all nations, and the treasures stored up for him demonstrate the exalted status he achieved. The death formula indicates the completion of his reign and his transition to rest. The honor before his people and all nations indicates the respect and recognition achieved during his lifetime. The treasures stored up for him indicate the wealth accumulated during his reign and the material legacy left. The account of his death concludes the narrative of his reign and establishes his historical significance.
