Abstract

In the narrative of 2 Chro 32:1-23, the characters through different characterization, props, and plots are shown in their many roles as leaders. The leadership qualities of the characters are assessed, and the leadership styles and qualities of Sennacherib and Hezekiah, and God’s work with His people who call on Him are revealed. God’s deliverance of Jerusalem and His divine leadership shows the narrator’s point of view intended for the implied reader. This study shows that the story is a leadership story where God moves from a passive character to an active character who leads His people to victory. The story shows how God carefully watches and works through people to deliver His people. This article notes that one’s style of leadership plays a role in the empowerment and growth of the people he/she leads.
