Isaiah 7:13 - Exposition
O house of David (comp. Isaiah 7:2 ). It is not Ahaz alone, but the "house of David," which is on its trial. Men are conspiring to remove it ( Isaiah 7:6 ). If it will not be saved in God's way, it will have to be removed by God himself. Is it a small thing for you to weary men? i.e. "Are you not content with wearying men; with disregarding all my warnings and so wearying me? Must you go further, and weary God" (or, "wear out his patience") "by rejecting his gracious offers?" My God. In Isaiah 7:11 Isaiah had called Jehovah "thy God;" but as Ahaz, by rejecting God's offer, had rejected God, he speaks of him now as "my God."
