Commentary for Isaiah 10:32
Isaiah 10:32 is a part of the prophetic book of Isaiah, which contains the messages of the prophet Isaiah to the Southern Kingdom of Judah, particularly during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah. This verse is situated within a larger prophecy concerning the Assyrian Empire's threat to Jerusalem.
In this verse, "he" refers to the Assyrian king, traditionally understood to be Sennacherib, who is foretold to make a stand at Nob, a city near Jerusalem. Nob was historically significant as the site where the tabernacle was located after the time of David (1 Samuel 21-22). The phrase "shake his hand" is a gesture of defiance or challenge. The "mount of the daughter of Zion" and "the hill of Jerusalem" both refer to Jerusalem itself, which sits on a hill and is personified as the "daughter of Zion," a term often used in the Bible to represent the city and its inhabitants in a relational and affectionate way.
The historical context of this verse is the Assyrian campaigns against the Levant, specifically the siege of Jerusalem in 701 BCE. Sennacherib, the Assyrian king, had already conquered the Northern Kingdom of Israel and was intent on subduing Judah and its capital, Jerusalem. The verse captures the moment of impending conflict, as the Assyrian forces approach the city, ready to challenge its security and the faith of its people.
The themes present in this verse include divine sovereignty, as God allows Assyria to be an instrument of judgment against His people for their unfaithfulness; the vulnerability of Jerusalem, which is under threat from a powerful foreign empire; and the looming test of faith for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who must trust in God's protection despite the formidable enemy at their gates. This moment sets the stage for the deliverance of Jerusalem as described in the following chapters, where God miraculously delivers the city from the Assyrian siege, thus reinforcing the themes of trust in God's power and faithfulness to His people.
