What do we learn from "Chalal Rasha"?
Brachos 18b: Resha'im are called dead even while alive.
Rashi, Targum Yonasan: You are liable to be a Chalal (Mes) amidst your evil.
Radak: This is like "Ishah Zonah va'Chalalah" (Vayikra 21:7. Chalal is one who lost Kedushas Kehunah.)
Malbim: This refers to Chizkiyah. He is called Chalal based on his end ? "Cherev Chalal ha'Gadol" (19).
Who is "Nesi Yisrael"?
Rashi: It is Tzidkiyah.
Which day came?
Radak: The day when kingship will be taken from him.
Radak citing Targum Yonasan: The day of his breakage.
Malbim: The day to receive his punishment.
When is "b'Es Avon Ketz"?
Rashi: It is when the measure [of sin] is full, and the last sin, which fills the measure, came.
Radak: It is when his sin caused the end of his kingship. Avon is Samuch to Ketz ? the sin for which his end came, i.e. Shevu'as Sheker. Nebuchadnetzar forced him to swear in Hashem's name, and Tzidkiyah rebelled against him and belittled the curse to annul the Bris. Therefore, Nebuchadnetzar came against him, blinded his eyes, exiled him and destroyed the land.
Radak citing Targum Yonasan: The time for payment of his sins.
