Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 37:26

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

26. Reply of God to Sennacherib. long ago —join, rather, with "I have done it." Thou dost boast that it is all by thy counsel and might: but it is I who, long ago, have ordered it so ( Isaiah 22:11 ); thou wert but the instrument in My hands ( Isaiah 10:5 ; Isaiah 10:15 ). This was the reason why "the inhabitants were of small power before thee" ( Isaiah 10:15- : ), namely, that I ordered it so; yet thou art in My hands, and I know thy ways ( Isaiah 37:28 ), and I will check thee ( Isaiah 37:29 ). Connect also, " I from ancient times have arranged ('formed') it." However, English Version is supported by Isaiah 33:13 ; Isaiah 45:6 ; Isaiah 45:21 ; Isaiah 48:5 . return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-27" class="com-number"
