イザヤ書 7:2 JCB

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 7:1-25

Immediately following this new call of the prophet, we have the account of his encounter with Ahaz. Rezin of Syria and Pekah of Israel had entered into a confederacy against Judah, and a great fear possessed the people. The prophet declares to him that the counsel of these kings shall not prevail if he, that is, Ahaz, will be quiet and trust in God. A sign from Jehovah is offered, but he refuses to ask one. This refusal is an act of unbelief, which the prophet rebukes, and then declares that... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 7:1-9

God Appeals to Ahaz Asking Him To Trust Him (Isaiah 7:1-9 ). Syria and Israel, in seeking to join an alliance against Assyria, called on Judah to join them, and when Ahaz was reluctant, determined to bring him to heel. (As far as we know up to this point Judah had not had to pay tribute to Assyria, probably because of the remoteness of its capital). But Yahweh tells Ahaz that he is right to reject any part in the alliance, but must rather trust in Him. Unfortunately, and very foolishly,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 7:1-16

Isaiah 7:1-Nehemiah : . Isaiah Gives Ahaz the Encouraging Sign of Immanuel when he is Dismayed by the Alliance of Syria and Ephraim against him.— For the historical circumstances see pp. 59, 70f. Apart from Isaiah 7:1, which is derived from 2 Kings 16:5 and is out of chronological order, this section seems to have been written by an editor on the basis of Isaiah’ s autobiography (contrast the 1st person of the preceding chapter with the 3rd of this). The alarm, described in the picturesque... read more

The house of David; Ahaz, and his royal relations and courtiers. He calls them the house of David, to intimate that the following comfortable message was sent to Ahaz, not for his own sake, but only for the sake of his worthy progenitor, David, to whom God had promised an everlasting kingdom. Ephraim; the kingdom of the ten tribes, commonly called Ephraim, as Isaiah 28:1; Hosea 12:1, because that was far the most numerous and potent of’ all of them. Was moved with excessive fear, arising partly... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 7:1-25

Isaiah 7:1 . In the days of Ahaz, the second or the third year of his reign. Chapters 5. and 6. are therefore out of place. Isaiah 7:6 . Let us go up against Judah and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal. The rabbins make him to be a relative of the reigning family in Samaria. They gave away David’s throne before they had conquered it! Isaiah 7:8 . The head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. But Jerusalem now had the Lord for her head. Within... read more

Isaiah 7:1-9Rezin . . . and Pekah . . . went up toward Jerusalem to war against itThe confederacy against JerusalemThe reason of this war is not stated: but from the desire of those kings to dethrone Ahaz, and place on the throne in Jerusalem another, even Ben Tabeal, it may be inferred thatAhaz refused to join these two powers in a general rising against Assyria.Obviously, Ahaz was well advised in not taking a step of such decided opposition to Nineveh: for had he done so, the legions of that... read more
