The Shadow on Hezekiah's Sundial Goes Backward

"And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz."

"Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down."

What was the dial of Ahaz?

It was likely a stepped sundial built by King Ahaz, where the descending shadow marked the hours of the day.

Both events involve God altering the sun's apparent course, but they are distinct miracles centuries apart, each confirming God's word to His servant.
