看到國王對上主和先知的話語如此信賴，我們不禁感到驚訝。

這是以色列傳統的一個重要特徵：對上主話語力量的信心。

正是這種信心造就了我們今天的聖經：他們保存聖經，反覆閱讀，因為他們期盼著上主話語的實現。

在我們這個時代，無數的信息湧入耳中，我們更應該專注於那永恆不變的話語。

We are surprised when we see how much the king trusts in God and in the words of the prophet.

This is a key feature in the tradition of Israel: faith in the power of God’s word.

Such faith is one of the reasons why we have the Bible: they kept the books, read and re-read them because they were awaiting the fulfilment of God’s words.

In our time, when uncountable words arrive at our ears and minds, it is important for us to keep our attention fixed on the only words that remain forever.
