以赛亚书 10:10-11 RCUVSS

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 10:10

As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols ,.... Which worship idols, as the Targum paraphrases it. He speaks of them as being very easily taken by him; he had no trouble in subduing them; no sooner did he come up to them, and looked on them, and saw where they were, but they fell into his hands; they gave up themselves to him at once, and he took possession of them. And whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria ; being made of better metal, or more richly... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Isaiah 10:11

Shall I not, as I have done to Samaria, and her idols ,.... Kimchi observes, that what is said in the preceding verses was said before Samaria was taken, but this after it was taken: so do to Jerusalem, and her idols ; he had taken Samaria, and carried the ten tribes captive, and now his eye was upon Judah and Jerusalem; and such was his insolence, impiety, and blasphemy, that he reckons the true God, whom the Jews worshipped, among the idols of the Gentiles, and upon a level with them,... 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 10:10

As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols. "Found" here means "reached," "punished … subjugated." It is quite in accordance with Assyrian ideas that the conquered countries should be called "kingdoms of the idols" (literally, "no gods"). The Assyrian monarchs regarded their own gods as alone really deserving of the name, and made war very much with the object of proving the superiority of their deities over those of their neighbors. Hence their practice of carrying off the idols from... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 10:11

Shall I not … so do to Jerusalem and her idols ? The speaker ignores the fact of any difference in kind between the religion of Judaea and that of the neighboring countries. He speaks as if he knew nothing of any religion without idols. No doubt Assyrian ideas on the subject of the religion of the Jews were at this time, as they were even later ( 2 Kings 18:22 ), exceedingly vague and incorrect. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 10:10-11

The argument in these two verses is this: ‘The nations which I have subdued were professedly under the protection of idol gods. Yet those idols were not able to defend them - though stronger than the gods worshipped by Jerusalem and Samaria. And is there any probability, therefore, that the protection on which you who are Jews are leaning, will be able to deliver you?’ Jerusalem he regarded as an idolatrous city, like others; and as all others had hitherto been unable to retard his movements,... read more
