Study Note
The Chronicler's summary of the pre-exile period — God sent his messengers 'rising up betimes, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place' — presents the prophetic mission as an act of divine compassion rather than merely judicial warning. The phrase 'rising up early' (hashkem) is an idiom for urgency and persistence, suggesting God sent prophets with urgent persistence precisely because he did not desire the exile that was coming. The Hebrew word 'hemel' (compassion, pity) reveals the emotional texture of divine judgment: the warnings came from the same source as the promises — covenant love. Jesus' lament over Jerusalem ('how often would I have gathered your children as a hen gathers her brood… and you were not willing,' Matthew 23:37) echoes the same pathos of persistent divine outreach refused.
