Charles Ellicott Commentary 2 Chronicles 32:19

"And they spake of the God of Jerusalem, as of the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are the work of men`s hands." — 2 Chronicles 32:19 (ASV)

They spoke against. —Or, spoke of. Literally, to. (Psalms 3:2).

People. — Peoples.

The work. —The versions have “works.” Instead of repeating the offers which the Assyrian envoys made to the people of Jerusalem to induce them to submit, the chronicler dwells on that blasphemy against the God of Israel which was the cause of the Assyrian overthrow.

The work of the hands of man. —A reminiscence of 2 Kings 19:18: And they put their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of human hands, wood and stone (part of Hezekiah’s prayer).
