First, the emphasis in the first half of the sentence, \u05e6\u05b0\u05d3\u05b8\u05e7\u05b8\u05d4 \u05ea\u05bc\u05b4\u05e6\u05bc\u05b9\u05e8 \u05ea\u05bc\u05b8\u05dd-\u05d3\u05bc\u05b8\u05e8\u05b6\u05da\u05b0 is how righteousness keeps watch making a man\u2019s ways innocent. This is the idea that practicing righteousness shields a person from adversity (see also Mishey \/ Proverbs 2:11, 4:6, 13:3). A practitioner of God&#8217;s way of life is protected by the fact that he does what is right. If a person does good things, avoiding what is evil, he will be drawn into adverse situations far less frequently than those who dance on the edge of the cliff. The second half of the verse \u05d5\u05b0\u05e8\u05b4\u05e9\u05c1\u05b0\u05e2\u05b8\u05d4 \u05ea\u05bc\u05b0\u05e1\u05b7\u05dc\u05bc\u05b5\u05e3 \u05d7\u05b7\u05d8\u05bc\u05b8\u05d0\u05ea states that the wicked twist or misrepresent due to their sin. The sinful way of living offers a person no protection at all; the course of sin will run unchecked through his or her life all the way to its completion, which is death! (See James 1:14-15) Note that God allows a period of repentance so as to halt this sequence of events. We note that this is the course of the people of Israel in Isaiah\u2019s day, the people living in sin, unrepentant, and their sins eating away at them to their destruction. (Ephesians 2:1-3). Isaiah describes God\u2019s interaction in the lives of the people in the following way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide3-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\u05e1\u05e4\u05e8 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e2\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05d9<br><\/strong>\u05db\u05d2 \u05db\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05db\u05b8\u05dc\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e0\u05b6\u05d7\u05b1\u05e8\u05b8\u05e6\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d0\u05b2\u05d3\u05b9\u05e0\u05b8\u05d9 \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b6\u05d5\u05b9\u05b4\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea \u05e2\u05b9\u05e9\u05b6\u05b9\u05d4 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05e7\u05b6\u05e8\u05b6\u05d1 \u05db\u05bc\u05b8\u05dc-\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05e8\u05b6\u05e5:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah 10:23 states, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cFor the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, (<\/span><\/em>\u05db\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05db\u05b8\u05dc\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e0\u05b6\u05d7\u05b1\u05e8\u05b8\u05e6\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d0\u05b2\u05d3\u05b9\u05e0\u05b8\u05d9 \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b6\u05d5\u05b9\u05b4\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) even determined, in the midst of all the land.

The KJV translates this as God making a consumption. At one point in history, the word consumption was a label given to a disease of unknown origin. Tuberculosis (TB) was popularly known as consumption for a long time. Scientists know it as an infection caused by M. tuberculosis. In 1882, the microbiologist Robert Koch discovered the tubercle bacillus, at a time when one of every seven deaths in Europe was caused by TB. Because antibiotics were unknown, the only means of controlling the spread of infection was to isolate patients in private sanitoria or hospitals limited to patients with TB. Note how the transmission was not well understood either, all the reason for isolation. Isaiah had just said there would remain a remnant of people, but destruction would come to most. We note that God&#8217;s promises to Abraham would be fulfilled (Bereshit \/ Genesis 22:17, 32:12). It was also believed that because of the promises they would be safe. (Luke 3:7-9) Even though there will remain a remnant, the Lord God has decreed their destruction due to their unrepentant sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\u05e1\u05e4\u05e8 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e2\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05d9<br><\/strong>\u05db\u05d3 \u05dc\u05b8\u05db\u05b5\u05df \u05db\u05bc\u05b9\u05d4-\u05d0\u05b8\u05de\u05b7\u05e8 \u05d0\u05b2\u05d3\u05b9\u05e0\u05b8\u05d9 \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b6\u05d5\u05b9\u05b4\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea \u05d0\u05b7\u05dc-\u05ea\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0 \u05e2\u05b7\u05de\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05d9\u05e9\u05c1\u05b5\u05d1 \u05e6\u05b4\u05d9\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05de\u05b5\u05d0\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05b5\u05d1\u05b6\u05d8 \u05d9\u05b7\u05db\u05bc\u05b6\u05db\u05bc\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05bc\u05de\u05b7\u05d8\u05bc\u05b5\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc \u05d9\u05b4\u05e9\u05bc\u05c2\u05b8\u05d0-\u05e2\u05b8\u05dc\u05b6\u05d9\u05da\u05b8 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05d3\u05b6\u05e8\u05b6\u05da\u05b0 \u05de\u05b4\u05e6\u05b0\u05e8\u05b8\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah 10:24 states, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, (<\/span><\/em>\u05dc\u05b8\u05db\u05b5\u05df \u05db\u05bc\u05b9\u05d4-\u05d0\u05b8\u05de\u05b7\u05e8 \u05d0\u05b2\u05d3\u05b9\u05e0\u05b8\u05d9 \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b6\u05d5\u05b9\u05b4\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: (<\/span><\/em>\u05d0\u05b7\u05dc-\u05ea\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0 \u05e2\u05b7\u05de\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05d9\u05e9\u05c1\u05b5\u05d1 \u05e6\u05b4\u05d9\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05de\u05b5\u05d0\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) he shall smite thee with a rod, (<\/span><\/em>\u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05b5\u05d1\u05b6\u05d8 \u05d9\u05b7\u05db\u05bc\u05b6\u05db\u05bc\u05b8\u05d4<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

The Rod upon the sea is a reference to Moshe and the Red Sea and God\u2019s treatment of Egypt at the sea. (Shemot \/ Exodus 14) Note that the slaughter of Midian, Gideon was stirred up by the Lord to destroy the idol god of Israel at that time (baal and ashtoroth) and then to take men and attack Midianites who were near. The Angel of the Lord commanded Gideon to do these things. And the power of God was present, just as it was present during the Red Sea event. Here in Gideon\u2019s case, the Lord God had given dreams to the Midianites which showed them that Gideon was going to conquer them, they would be defeated and destroyed. When reading the narrative, it is interesting that there was a confusion on the blowing of the trumpets and the people attacked one another and fled. This confusion was given from God and was due to their sins! Note this is consistent with our previous conclusion, that a person who practices God&#8217;s way of life (righteousness and holiness) is protected by the fact that he does what is right. On the other hand, the sinful way of living offers a person no protection at all; the course of sin will run unchecked through his or her life all the way to its completion, which is death!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\u05e1\u05e4\u05e8 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e2\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05d9<br><\/strong>\u05db\u05d6 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b8\u05d9\u05b8\u05d4 | \u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05dd \u05d4\u05b7\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc\u05d0 \u05d9\u05b8\u05e1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8 \u05e1\u05bb\u05d1\u05bc\u05b3\u05dc\u05d5\u05b9 \u05de\u05b5\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05e9\u05c1\u05b4\u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b6\u05da\u05b8 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e2\u05bb\u05dc\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9 \u05de\u05b5\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05e6\u05b7\u05d5\u05bc\u05b8\u05d0\u05e8\u05b6\u05da\u05b8 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d7\u05bb\u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05dc \u05e2\u05b9\u05dc \u05de\u05b4\u05e4\u05bc\u05b0\u05e0\u05b5\u05d9-\u05e9\u05c1\u05b8\u05de\u05b6\u05df:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah 10:27 states, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cAnd it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, (<\/span><\/em>\u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b8\u05d9\u05b8\u05d4 | \u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05dd \u05d4\u05b7\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc\u05d0 \u05d9\u05b8\u05e1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8 \u05e1\u05bb\u05d1\u05bc\u05b3\u05dc\u05d5\u05b9 \u05de\u05b5\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05e9\u05c1\u05b4\u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b6\u05da\u05b8<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

Aiath (\u05e2\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b7\u05ea) is Ai, one of the first town\u2019s that Israel encountered when Joshua brought the people into the Land (see Joshua 8). This city is just east of Bethel (Bereshit \/ Genesis 12:8). Michmash (\u05de\u05b4\u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b8\u05e9\u05c2, mikhmas; \u05de\u05b4\u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b8\u05e1, mikhmas)is a town on the Benjamin-Judah border near Bethel and Jerusalem, east of Beth Aven. Michmash may mean \u201chidden place\u201d (HALOT, s.v. \u201c\u05de\u05b4\u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b8\u05e1, mikhmas\u201d). Geba (\u05d2\u05b6\u05bc\u05d1\u05b7\u05e2, geva&#8217;; \u0393\u03b1\u03b2\u03b1\u03b1, Gabaa) is a Levitical city located within the portion of land Joshua assigned to the tribe of Benjamin (Joshua 21:17). Biblical references to the city of Geba (with the spelling \u05d2\u05b6\u05bc\u05d1\u05b7\u05e2, geva&#8217;) appear in Joshua 18:24, 21:17, 1 Samuel 13:3, 14:5, 1 Kings 15:22, 2 Kings 23:8, 1 Chronicles 8:6, 2 Chronicles 16:6, Ezra 2:26, Nehemiah 7:30, 11:31, 12:29, Isaiah 10:29, Zechariah 14:10.

Anathoth was a Levitical city in Benjamin, Joshua 21:18, 1 Chronicles 6:60. Abiathar was confined in 1 Kings 2:26. It was the birthplace of Jeremiah according to Jeremiah 1:1, 32:7-12, of Abiezer, 2 Samuel 23:27, of Jehu, 1 Chronicles 12:3. Prophecies against Jeremiah 11:21\u201323.

We note that John Oswalt states there is kind of a disjunctive connection here, meaning that there is a lack of a direct connection to the text to all of these places. John Oswalt continues saying, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cRaman and Gibeah are outflanked. Gallim, Laishah, Anathoth, Madmenah, and Gebim lie directly in the path of the juggernaut as it makes the final march to the outskirts of Jerusalem on the following day. Although Nob has not been positively identified, it was probably in the vicinity of Mount Scopus northeast of Jerusalem. In a climactic gesture, the victorious enemy stands astride that high point and hurls taunts at Jerusalem. Obviously, nothing can save the city from such overwhelming force.\u201d<\/span><\/em> (Oswalt, J. N. (1986). The Book of Isaiah, Chapters 1\u201339 (pp. 273\u2013275). Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co.) it is interesting to note that Geba is the location that all of Israel fought against the sons of Belial according to Judges 20. The events according to judges 19-21 provide an interesting context to what is going on with Judah and Jerusalem. If we remember, the sons of Belial behaved in similar manner to the men of Sodom, in their wickedness they killed a concubine through sexual abuse. Then all of Israel came against the tribe of Benjamin due to his sin. The events that follow include war and the refusal of all the tribes of Israel to give Benjamin daughters in marriage because of their sin and refusing to turn over the sons of Belial. The name Belial (\u05d1\u05b0\u05dc\u05b4\u05d9\u05b7\u05bc\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc\u200e) is a Hebrew word that is used as a label for the wicked or worthless. The etymology of the word is often understood as <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;lacking worth,&#8221;<\/span><\/em> derived from two common words: \u05d1\u05b0\u05bc\u05dc\u05b4\u05d9 <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;without-&#8220;<\/span><\/em> and \u05d9\u05b8\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;to be of value.&#8221;<\/span><\/em> Do some translate this word to mean <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;worthless&#8221;<\/span><\/em> or <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">&#8220;having no worth.&#8221;<\/span><\/em> This word occurs twenty-seven times in the Masoretic Text, in verses such as Mishley \/ Proverbs 6:12.

We note that those who are labeled as the sons of Belial are those who have no regard for God&#8217;s Torah, promoting sexual sin and idolatry. This is why Paul compared them to Godly men saying, 2 Corinthians 6:15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? (NIV) The sinfulness of Geba parallels the people in Isaiah&#8217;s day and is what has led to the destruction of Judah and Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\u05e1\u05e4\u05e8 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e2\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05d9<br><\/strong>\u05dc\u05d2 \u05d4\u05b4\u05e0\u05bc\u05b5\u05d4 \u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05d3\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b9\u05d5\u05b8\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea \u05de\u05b0\u05e1\u05b8\u05e2\u05b5\u05e3 \u05e4\u05bc\u05bb\u05d0\u05e8\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e8\u05b8\u05e6\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e8\u05b8\u05de\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b7\u05e7\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05de\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d2\u05bc\u05b0\u05d3\u05d5\u05bc\u05e2\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b7\u05d2\u05bc\u05b0\u05d1\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05b4\u05e9\u05c1\u05b0\u05e4\u05bc\u05b8\u05dc\u05d5\u05bc: \u05dc\u05d3 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e0\u05b4\u05e7\u05bc\u05b7\u05e3 \u05e1\u05b4\u05d1\u05b0\u05db\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b7\u05e2\u05b7\u05e8 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05d1\u05bc\u05b7\u05e8\u05b0\u05d6\u05b6\u05dc \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b7\u05dc\u05bc\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05e0\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05d0\u05b7\u05d3\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8 \u05d9\u05b4\u05e4\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05dc:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah 10:33 states, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cBehold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, (<\/span><\/em>\u05d4\u05b4\u05e0\u05bc\u05b5\u05d4 \u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05d3\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b9\u05d5\u05b8\u05d4 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05ea<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) shall lop the bough with terror: (<\/span><\/em>\u05de\u05b0\u05e1\u05b8\u05e2\u05b5\u05e3 \u05e4\u05bc\u05bb\u05d0\u05e8\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05e2\u05b2\u05e8\u05b8\u05e6\u05b8\u05d4<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, (<\/span><\/em>\u05d5\u05b0\u05e8\u05b8\u05de\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b7\u05e7\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05de\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d2\u05bc\u05b0\u05d3\u05d5\u05bc\u05e2\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd<em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">) and the haughty shall be humbled.

We remember that these things teach us that there are no partial sinners. One is either righteous or sinful. James writes saying it this way, if we break one command, we have broken them all.

James distills it even further saying simply that we all stumble (James 3:2). The point is each time we sin we need the grace and mercy of God. This is why we need the Lord in our lives, especially God&#8217;s Son Yeshua the Messiah as He laid His life down on our behalf shedding His blood for the forgiveness of sins. The lessons that we learn from these things is to repent, to believe and to seek the Lord&#8217;s help to overcome and help us to walk according to the spirit and do what is right according to God&#8217;s Word. We are not called to dance along the edge of the cliff, but to live by faith and not play around with evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"

the midst of the earth. 10:24 Therefore, thus saith the Lord, the God of hosts, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with his government, and his dominion he shall lift up upon thee, after the manner of Egypt. 10:25 For yet a little while, and the curses shall cease from you of the house of Jacob; and mine anger shall be upon the people that work iniquity, to destroy them. 10:26 And the Lord of hosts shall bring upon him a stroke, as the stroke of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his dominion shall depart from you, as the dominion of Pharaoh departed by the sea, and mighty works shall be done for you after the manner of Egypt. 10:27 And it shall come to pass at that time, that his dominion shall depart from you, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the nations shall be broken from before the Messiah. 10:28 He is come to Aiath, he has passed through Migron; at Micmash he shall appoint the princes of his army. 10:29 They waded, they passed through the Jordan: at Geba they passed the night; the inhabitants of Ramah are broken; the men of Gibeah of Saul have fled. 10:30 Lift up your voice, men of the daughter of Gallim: give ear, ye who are dwelling in Laish, who are dwelling in poor Anathoth. 10:31 The men of Madmenah are broken; the inhabitants of Gebim are fled. 10:32 As yet the day is still high, and he has much time to come. Behold, Sennacherib the king of Assyria. He journeyed and passed three stations, and he brought with him forty thousand seats of gold, in which the sons of the kings encircled with crowns were sitting; likewise, led with him two hundred thousand holding swords and spears; he also brought with him two hundred and sixty thousand archers, and a hundred thousand men ran before him. The length of his camp was four hundred parasangs; the neck of his horses forty parasangs; the number of his army, was two hundred and sixty thousand myriads lacking one. And thus they came upon Abraham, when they had cast him into the midst of the burning fire, and thus they shall come with Gog and Magog, when the world shall have completed its end to be redeemed. When the first host passed through the Jordan, they drank up the waters which were in the Jordan. When the second host passed through the Jordan, the hoofs of the horses absorbed, and drank the waters. When the third host passed through the Jordan, they dug wells, and drank the waters. He came and stood in Nob, the city of the priests, before the wall of Jerusalem; he answered and said to his army, Is not this the city of Jerusalem, against which I have tumultuously brought together all my camps, and on account of which I have oppressed all my provinces? Behold, she is smaller and weaker than all the fortified cities of the nations which I have subdued by the strength of my hand. He came up, he stood and shook his head; he stretched out and moved his hand against the mount of the house of the SANCTUARY, which is in Zion, and against the court which is in Jerusalem. 10:33 Behold, the Lord of the world, the Lord of hosts, shall cast forth slaughter into his camp, as grapes that are trod in a wine-press: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the mighty shall be humbled. 10:34 And He shall slay the mighty men of his camp, who are strong as iron. And those that make war upon the earth shall be cast down.

(KJV)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Here the Lord God is telling us in advance what is going to happen. This harvesting of the wicked is consistent with other Scripture, such as Jeremiah 25:15, 25:28-31, and Jeremiah 51:33, Hosea 6:11. We also read Yeshua providing a parable (the wheat and the tares) and of the Father in heaven and His judgment. (Matthew 13:39-42, Mark 4:29) The simple reason for the Lord telling us all these things is that He has given us this information so we can understand His plans. He wants us to know where sin came from and where it is going. God wants His children to align Bible history with Bible prophecy so that we can see and understand His love for us. The conclusion of Revelation reveals to us the wicked loose, and are defeated at the hands of the Lamb of God, who is the Messiah Yeshua! We note how what we have been studying here in Isaiah, the consequences of sin, and ultimately of the coming Messianic King, the Lord God will deliver His people, but only after their repentance from sin. Rashi states the following concerning these verses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide9-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Rashi on Isaiah 10:23 Part 1<br><\/strong>\u05db\u05d9 \u05db\u05dc\u05d4 \u05d5\u05e0\u05d7\u05e8\u05e6\u05d4. \u05ea\u05e8\u05d0\u05d5 \u05e9\u05d4\u05e7\u05d1&#8221;\u05d4 \u05e2\u05d5\u05e9\u05d4 (\u05d3\u05d9\u05df) \u05d1\u05e8\u05e9\u05e2\u05d9\u05dd \u05d5\u05ea\u05db\u05e0\u05e2\u05d5 \u05d5\u05ea\u05e9\u05d5\u05d1\u05d5 \u05d0\u05dc\u05d9\u05d5:<br>For destruction and annihilation you shall see that the Holy One, blessed be He, executes upon the wicked, and you shall humble yourselves and return to Him<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Rashi points out the destruction and annihilation are meant to humble and lead to repentance. The point is that we can always receive direction from the Lord God in heaven, His will is for our repentance. If we seek and search for Him with all of our heart, all of our being, and not withhold anything from Him, we will find Him. The only place of safety is to be in the will of God and live our lives for His glory. If one is not at this point in their lives, then the very first thing one needs to do is repent and turn from his or her sin seeking the Lord\u2019s help to do so. This is the only thing that is going to bring God\u2019s protection and revelation into our lives. This means that we are to have Kavanah, which is the Hebrew word for direction, intention, or purpose in our lives. That purpose is to be intentional to seek the Lord God in heaven and His Messiah Yeshua. It is only then that we are able to walk in victory with His peace in our hearts, and live in joy and love towards one another no matter what is happening in this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah according to the TgJ states the following, \u05db\u05d3 \u05d1\u05b0\u05db\u05b5\u05d9\u05df \u05db\u05b4\u05d3\u05b0\u05e0\u05b8\u05df \u05d0\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05e8 \u05d9\u05d5\u05d9 \u05d0\u05b0\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05b9\u05d5\u05ea \u05dc\u05b8\u05d0 \u05ea\u05b4\u05d3\u05d7\u05b7\u05dc \u05e2\u05b7\u05de\u05b4\u05d9 \u05d9\u05b8\u05ea\u05b5\u05d9\u05d1 \u05e6\u05b4\u05d9\u05b9\u05d5\u05df \u05de\u05b5\u05d0\u05b7\u05ea\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d1\u05b0\u05e9\u05d5\u05bc\u05dc\u05d8\u05b8\u05e0\u05d9\u05b5\u05d4 \u05d9\u05b4\u05de\u05d7\u05b5\u05d9\u05e0\u05b8\u05da \u05d5\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05e8\u05d5\u05b0\u05ea\u05b5\u05d9\u05d4 \u05d9\u05b4\u05d8\u05b9\u05d5\u05dc \u05e2\u05b0\u05dc\u05b8\u05da \u05db\u05b4\u05d9\u05d3 \u05d1\u05b0\u05d0\u05b9\u05d5\u05e8\u05b7\u05d7 \u05de\u05b4\u05e6\u05e8\u05b8\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd\u05c3 <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">10:24 Therefore, thus saith the Lord, the God of hosts, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with his government, and his dominion he shall lift up upon thee, after the manner of Egypt.<\/span><\/em> \u05db\u05d4 \u05d0\u05b0\u05e8\u05b5\u05d9 \u05e2\u05b9\u05d5\u05d3 \u05e6\u05b4\u05d9\u05d1 \u05d7\u05b7\u05d3 \u05db\u05b4\u05d6\u05e2\u05b5\u05d9\u05e8 \u05d5\u05b4\u05d9\u05e1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e4\u05d5\u05bc\u05df \u05dc\u05b0\u05d5\u05b8\u05d8\u05b7\u05d9\u05b8\u05d0 \u05de\u05b4\u05d9\u05e0\u05b0\u05db\u05b9\u05d5\u05df \u05d3\u05b0\u05d1\u05b5\u05d9\u05ea \u05d9\u05b7\u05e2\u05b0\u05e7\u05b9\u05d1 \u05d5\u05b0\u05e8\u05bb\u05d2\u05d6\u05b4\u05d9 \u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05e2\u05b7\u05de\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05d9\u05b8\u05d0 \u05e2\u05b8\u05d1\u05b0\u05d3\u05b5\u05d9 \u05ea\u05b7\u05db\u05dc\u05b8\u05d0 \u05dc\u05b0\u05e9\u05b5\u05d9\u05e6\u05b8\u05d9\u05d5\u05bc\u05ea\u05b0\u05d4\u05b9\u05d5\u05df\u05c3 <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">10:25 For yet a little while, and the curses shall cease from you of the house of Jacob; and mine anger shall be upon the people that work iniquity, to destroy them.<\/span><\/em> \u05db\u05d5 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d9\u05b7\u05d9\u05ea\u05b5\u05d9 \u05e2\u05b0\u05dc\u05b9\u05d5\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9 \u05d9\u05d5\u05d9 \u05e6\u05b0\u05d1\u05b8\u05d0\u05b9\u05d5\u05ea \u05de\u05b7\u05d7\u05b8\u05d0 \u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05d7\u05b7\u05ea \u05de\u05b4\u05d3\u05d9\u05b8\u05df \u05d1\u05b4\u05e9\u05e7\u05b5\u05d9\u05e3 \u05e2\u05b9\u05d5\u05e8\u05b5\u05d1 \u05d5\u05bc\u05de\u05b7\u05d7\u05b0\u05ea\u05b5\u05d9\u05d4 \u05ea\u05b4\u05e2\u05d3\u05b5\u05d9 \u05de\u05b4\u05d9\u05e0\u05b0\u05db\u05b9\u05d5\u05df \u05db\u05b0\u05de\u05b8\u05d0 \u05d3\u05b7\u05e2\u05b0\u05d3\u05b8\u05ea \u05de\u05b4\u05d9\u05e0\u05b0\u05db\u05b9\u05d5\u05df \u05de\u05b7\u05e8\u05d5\u05b7\u05ea \u05e4\u05b7\u05e8\u05e2\u05b9\u05d4 \u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05d9\u05b7\u05de\u05b8\u05d0 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d9\u05b4\u05ea\u05e2\u05b7\u05d1\u05d3\u05b8\u05df \u05dc\u05b0\u05db\u05b9\u05d5\u05df \u05d2\u05b0\u05d1\u05d5\u05bc\u05e8\u05b8\u05df \u05db\u05b4\u05d9\u05d3 \u05d1\u05d0\u05b9\u05d5\u05e8\u05b7\u05d7 \u05de\u05b4\u05e6\u05e8\u05b8\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd\u05c3 <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">10:26 And the Lord of hosts shall bring upon him a stroke, as the stroke of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his dominion shall depart from you, as the dominion of Pharaoh departed by the sea, and mighty works shall be done for you after the manner of Egypt.

Rashi writes the following concerning Isaiah 10:26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide12-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Rashi on Isaiah 10:26, Part 1 and 2<br><\/strong>\u05db\u05de\u05db\u05ea \u05de\u05d3\u05d9\u05df. \u05e9\u05e0\u05d4\u05e8\u05d2\u05d5 \u05d1\u05dc\u05d9\u05dc\u05d4 \u05d0\u05d7\u05ea \u05d5\u05d4\u05de\u05dc\u05db\u05d9\u05dd \u05e9\u05d1\u05e8\u05d7\u05d5 \u05de\u05d4\u05dd \u05d5\u05e0\u05de\u05dc\u05d8\u05d5 \u05e0\u05d4\u05e8\u05d2\u05d5 \u05e2\u05d5\u05e8\u05d1 \u05d1\u05e6\u05d5\u05e8 \u05e2\u05d5\u05e8\u05d1 \u05db\u05d3\u05de\u05e4\u05d5\u05e8\u05e9 \u05d1\u05e1\u05e4\u05e8 \u05e9\u05d5\u05e4\u05d8\u05d9\u05dd \u05d0\u05e3 \u05d6\u05d4 \u05dc\u05d0\u05d7\u05e8 \u05e9\u05d9\u05e9\u05d5\u05d1 \u05dc\u05d0\u05e8\u05e6\u05d5 \u05d9\u05de\u05d5\u05ea \u05e9\u05dd \u05d1\u05d7\u05e8\u05d1:<br>like the smiting of Midian who were slain in one night, and as for the kings who fled from them and escaped, Oreb was slain at the Rock of Oreb, and is related in the Book of Judges (7:25).

(Judges 20) We also see how Eli\u2019s sons who were priests in the Tabernacle, were also called the sons of Belial because of their wickedness before God. Note that sacrifice and sexual sin was involved in this instance as well. The sinfulness of the men in Geba parallels the people in Isaiah&#8217;s day and is what has led to the destruction of Judah and Jerusalem. The outcome of sin and sinful lifestyles has not changed today. If we do not repent, and do not seek the Messiah, we will be lost. This is how the TgJ notes victory in the Messiah saying the following, \u05db\u05d6 \u05d5\u05b4\u05d9\u05d4\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d1\u05b0\u05e2\u05b4\u05d9\u05d3\u05b8\u05e0\u05b8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05b7\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc\u05d0 \u05ea\u05b4\u05e2\u05d3\u05b5\u05d9 \u05de\u05b7\u05d7\u05b0\u05ea\u05b5\u05d9\u05d4 \u05de\u05b4\u05d9\u05e0\u05b8\u05da \u05d5\u05b0\u05e0\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8\u05b5\u05d9\u05d4 \u05de\u05b0\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc \u05e6\u05b7\u05d5\u05e8\u05b8\u05da \u05d5\u05b0\u05d9\u05b4\u05ea\u05b7\u05d1\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc\u05df \u05e2\u05b7\u05de\u05b0\u05de\u05b7\u05d9\u05b8\u05d0 \u05de\u05b4\u05df \u05e7\u05b3\u05d3\u05b8\u05dd \u05de\u05b0\u05e9\u05b4\u05d9\u05d7\u05b8\u05d0\u05c3 <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">10:27 And it shall come to pass at that time, that his dominion shall depart from you, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the nations shall be broken from before the Messiah. (TgJ)<\/span><\/em> Here both dominion and the yoke will depart from off the neck. The removal of the burden \/ yoke of sin and bondage here is an interesting parallel to these things which happen <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cbefore the Messiah\u201d<\/span><\/em> \u05e7\u05b3\u05d3\u05b8\u05dd \u05de\u05b0\u05e9\u05b4\u05d9\u05d7\u05b8\u05d0 (in His presence). First, the Messiah came to save his people from the wrath of God. We note according to Matthew 3:7 and Luke 3:7 John the Baptist warned of the wrath to come. We also note that Yesbua spoke regularly about the wrath of God. For example, he talked about the <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201chell of fire\u201d<\/span><\/em> (Matthew 5:22), the <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201ceternal fire\u201d<\/span><\/em> (Matthew 18:8), and a place where the <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cworm does not die, and the fire is not quenched\u201d<\/span><\/em> (Mark 9:48). Remember what Yeshua says according to John 3:36 concerning salvation in the Son is set in direct contrast to God\u2019s wrath, <em><span style=\"color:#cf2e2e\" class=\"tadv-color\">\u201cWhoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.\u201d<\/span><\/em> We note that major sections of the NT speak of God&#8217;s wrath, such as Paul writing that unrepentant sinners are given a deprived mind (Romans 1:24-28). The point is that God&#8217;s wrath focuses upon punishing sin, consistent with what we are reading here in the book of Isaiah. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and so the NT account reveals God&#8217;s wrath in the same way as idolaters are handed over to sin and its corruptions. (See Romans 1) According to Paul, God&#8217;s wrath awaits a future day (Romans 2:5, 2:8, 5:9) and Paul defends the righteousness of God&#8217;s wrath according to Romans 3:21-26 and 4:5. Romans 4:15 Paul explains that disobeying the Torah invites God&#8217;s wrath. Paul describes us as vessels of wrath who will experience eternal destruction according to Romans 9:23, and he tries to motivate us to trust in God by recalling God&#8217;s vengeance and future wrath. (Romans 12:19) If we consider how Paul writes, he presents God&#8217;s wrath as a backdrop to his message of grace in many of his epistles according to Ephesians 2:3, 5:6, Colossians 3:6, and 1 Thessalonians 1:10. We also read about God&#8217;s wrath in the book of Hebrews as contrasting Israel\u2019s wrath inducing unbelief with the enduring faith of new covenant believers (Hebrews 3:11 and 4:3). The Apostle John wrote in the book of Revelation assigning God\u2019s wrath to Yeshua when he describes the \u201cwrath of the Lamb\u201d (see Revelation 6:16 and 14:10). Note that in the final account, it will be Yeshua who executes God\u2019s judgment (see John 5:22, 5:27, 9:39, and 17:2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rabbis of the Talmud and Rashi state the following concerning these verses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14611\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Slide13-1.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Talmud Bavli Sanhedrin 94b:13<br><\/strong>\u00a7 It is stated with regard to the downfall of Assyria: \u201cAnd it shall come to pass on that day, his burden shall be taken from on your shoulder, and his yoke from on your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed due to fatness [shamen]\u201d (Isaiah 10:27).

Our Rabbis, however, explained [that Sennacherib\u2019s yoke would be destroyed] because of Hezekiah\u2019s oil which burnt in the synagogues and in the study-halls, for he persuaded them to engage in Torah, after the matter that is written (Proverbs 25: 1): \u201cWhich the men of Hezekiah strengthened\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Rashi and the Talmudic approach to understanding these verses is that when the people were engaged in studying God\u2019s Word the destruction that was coming stayed and did not harm the people. Hezekiah\u2019s oil is synonymous to his being anointed by God to lead his people to seek the Lord God in heaven. Hezekiah functioned as a messianic figure as king over Israel. This means that Hezekiah led the people to seek the truth of God according to His Word. Truth is an all-encompassing word. Therefore, it is something to be put into practice. There is nothing in our lives that is exempt from truth (\u05d0\u05b1\u05de\u05b6\u05ea). Note the letters in this world consist of the first, middle, and last letters in the Hebrew alphabet. This reveals to us how truth is all encompassing and enduring from the beginning, the present, and the end! Notice how if we remove the first letter \u05d0 (aleph) from the word we get \u05de\u05ea, death. This is the opposite of life, and also reveals to us how truth is life, whereas if we tamper with the truth, this leads to death. So, if we try to suppress the truth of God and His Holy Word in our lives, in our understanding, all we end up with is death! We also note the NT descriptions of Yeshua. The Messiah is called the Aleph and the Tav (\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05dc\u05b6\u05e3 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b7\u05ea\u05bc\u05b8\u05d5), &#8220;the first and the last&#8221; (\u05d4\u05b8\u05e8\u05b4\u05d0\u05e9\u05c1\u05d5\u05b9\u05df \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b7\u05d7\u05b2\u05e8\u05d5\u05b9\u05df). These are divine titles that exclusively belong to HaShem (see Isaiah 41:4, 44:6, 48:12) and the Messiah of God (see Revelation 1:17-18, 22:13). The basic premise that we obtain from these things is that in order to have life, we must have the Messiah, we cannot remove Him from the equation, this is the truth \u05d0\u05b1\u05de\u05b6\u05ea of God. Truth is a way of living, a mode of existence before God, and is based upon the Word of God. The Truth of God is what becomes a part of our lives when we live our lives according to God\u2019s Word! This is why our faith is always coupled to being faithful, the way we live our lives before the Almighty God!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The web page discusses the biblical theme of how righteousness protects a person from adversity, while sin leads to destruction.
