以賽亞書 10:6-7 CUNPTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-19

The destruction of the kingdom of Israel by Shalmaneser king of Assyria was foretold in the foregoing chapter, and it had its accomplishment in the sixth year of Hezekiah, 2 Kgs. 18:10. It was total and final, head and tail were all cut off. Now the correction of the kingdom of Judah by Sennacherib king of Assyria is foretold in this chapter; and this prediction was fulfilled in the fourteenth year of Hezekiah, when that potent prince, encouraged by the successes of his predecessor against the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 10:6

I will send him against a hypocritical nation ,.... The people of Israel, who might well be called so, since everyone of them was a hypocrite, Isaiah 9:17 pretending to love, fear, and serve the Lord, when it was only outwardly, and by profession, and not in deed, and in truth; their character contains the reason of the Lord's calling and sending the Assyrian to correct and chastise them: and against the people of my wrath : who provoked him to wrath, were deserving of it, and upon... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 10:7

Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so ,.... His purposes, intentions, and thoughts, were not as the Lord's; he did not imagine that he was only the rod of his anger, and the staff of his indignation, a minister of his wrath, and the executioner of his vengeance; he thought he was his own lord and master, and acted by his own power, and according to his own will, and was not under the direction and restraints of another; his intention was not to chastise and correct the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-7

The Divine overrulings. The figure of Assyria as an aggrandizing power is here set before us. "About B.C. 1100, the rule of Assyria, under Tiglath-Pileser I had stretched from Kurdistan to the Grecian Archipelago, including the whole of Lebanon and Phoenicia. But a strong league of the Hittite kings of Syria had effectually humbled it, and torn away from the successors of the great king all his dominions on this side the Euphrates. After a hundred and fifty years of obscurity, Assyria once... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-15

Assyria the rod of Jehovah. I. A WARLIKE POWER MAY BE THE PENAL INSTRUMENT OF PROVIDENCE . Assyria is here described as the "staff of Jehovah's anger," the "rod of his wrath," appointed to march against a people who have excited the Divine indignation. As he plunders and spoils, and proceeds on his devastating way, he may be in effect like Attila, the "scourge of God," destined like a wholesome tempest to purify the moral air of a corrupt age, and to prepare for a better... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-19

SECTION V. PROPHECIES OF WOE UPON FOREIGN NATIONS ( Isaiah 10:5-23 ) ASSYRIA , AFTER BEING GOD 'S INSTRUMENT TO PUNISH ISRAEL , SHALL HERSELF BE PUNISHED IN HER TURN . The wicked are a sword in the hand of God ( Psalms 17:13 ), wherewith he executes his judgments; but this fact is hid from them, and they imagine that they are successful through their own strength and might. So it was with Assyria ( Isaiah 10:5-14 ), which its long career of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-19

Assyria, a notable example of pride and its punishment. History furnishes no better example of pride and its punishment than that of Assyria. The pride of the Assyrians is equally apparent in Scripture and on the native monuments. I. ASSYRIA 'S PRIDE AS SHOWN FORTH IN SCRIPTURE . 1. In Rabshakeh's embassy 2 Kings 18:19-35 ) Rabshakeh not only scoffs at the military power of Judaea and Egypt, but ridicules the idea that Jehovah can deliver Jerusalem if the Assyrians... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:5-19

Man in his folly and God in his righteousness. We have a graphic picture here of— I. MAN IN HIS FOLLY . Under the dominion of the folly which is born of sin, man. 1. Indulges in designs which are beyond his strength . ( Isaiah 10:7 .) It is "in his heart" to do much greater things, often to work much greater wickedness, than he has power to execute. Under sin, men indulge in great-and even gross self-exaggeration; guilt is an infatuating thing. 2. Looks with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:6

I will send him against an hypocritical nation ; or, against a corrupt nation . Israel in the wider sense, inclusive of Judah, seems to be intended. The people of my wrath ; i.e. "the people who are the object of my wrath." Will I give him a charge . In 2 Kings 18:25 Sennacherib nays, "Am I come up without the Lord (Jehovah) against thin, lace, to destroy it? The Lord (Jehovah) said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it" (compare below, Isaiah 36:10 ). It has been... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:7

Howbeit he meaneth not so . "Assyria," i.e; "does not view the matter in this light—is not aware that she is merely God's instrument in working out his will. On the contrary, it is in her heart to destroy the nations for her own advantage, and she imagines that she is doing it by her own strength." read more
