The title "LORD GOD of Hosts" underscores His command over heavenly armies, indicating His power to fulfill His promises. This is a common title in prophetic literature, highlighting God's supreme authority and ability to intervene in human affairs.O My people who dwell in Zion: "Zion" refers to Jerusalem, the spiritual and political center of Israel. By addressing them as "My people," God reaffirms His covenant relationship with Israel, despite their current distress. Zion is often used symbolically in Scripture to represent God's chosen people and His dwelling place among them, as seen in Psalms and other prophetic books.do not fear Assyria: Assyria was a dominant empire during Isaiah's time, known for its military might and brutality. The command to "not fear" is a recurring biblical theme, encouraging trust in God's protection and sovereignty. Historically, Assyria posed a significant threat to Israel and Judah, but God reassures His people of His ultimate control over nations.who strikes you with a rod: The "rod" symbolizes Assyria's oppressive power and authority. In biblical imagery, a rod can represent discipline or judgment. Here, it signifies the harsh treatment and subjugation Israel experienced under Assyrian dominance. This imagery is consistent with other prophetic warnings about foreign nations being instruments of God's discipline.and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians did: The reference to Egypt recalls Israel's past oppression and subsequent deliverance during the Exodus. By comparing Assyria to Egypt, God reminds His people of His past faithfulness and deliverance. This historical parallel serves to reassure them that just as God delivered them from Egypt, He will also deliver them from Assyrian oppression. This connection to the Exodus narrative is a powerful reminder of God's redemptive power and His ability to save His people from seemingly insurmountable odds.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord_god_of_hosts.htm">The Lord GOD of Hosts</a> This title emphasizes God's supreme authority and power over all heavenly armies, highlighting His ability to protect and deliver His people. 2. <a href="/topical/z/zion.htm">Zion</a> Often used to refer to Jerusalem, Zion represents the spiritual center of God's people, symbolizing God's presence and His covenant relationship with Israel. 3. <a href="/topical/a/assyria.htm">Assyria</a> A powerful empire known for its military might and oppression, Assyria serves as an instrument of God's judgment but also as a reminder of His ultimate sovereignty. 4. <a href="/topical/e/egyptians.htm">Egyptians</a> Referring to the historical oppressors of Israel during their bondage in Egypt, this comparison serves to remind the Israelites of God's past deliverance. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_rod_and_staff.htm">The Rod and Staff</a> Symbols of discipline and authority, these tools represent the means by which Assyria oppresses Israel, yet they are ultimately under God's control.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/t/trust_in_god's_sovereignty.htm">Trust in God's Sovereignty</a> Despite the immediate threat, believers are called to trust in God's ultimate control and plan for deliverance. <a href="/topical/r/remember_past_deliverance.htm">Remember Past Deliverance</a> Reflecting on God's past acts of salvation, like the Exodus, can strengthen faith in His present and future promises. <a href="/topical/f/fear_not.htm">Fear Not</a> Fear is a natural response to oppression, but God commands His people to live in faith, not fear, trusting in His protection. <a href="/topical/g/god's_discipline_and_deliverance.htm">God's Discipline and Deliverance</a> Understand that God may use difficult circumstances as a form of discipline, but His purpose is always redemptive and for our good. <a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_faith_in_adversity.htm">The Role of Faith in Adversity</a> Faith is not the absence of fear but the choice to trust God amidst fear, knowing He is greater than any earthly power.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_isaiah_10.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Isaiah 10</a> <a href="/q/why_does_isaiah_24_depict_cosmic_ruin.htm">Why does Isaiah 24 describe devastation on a cosmic scale that seems scientifically impossible for the ancient world to witness or record?</a> <a href="/q/does_zech._1_14-15_align_with_other_biblical_judgments.htm">How does the promised divine judgment in Zechariah 1:14-15 align with or contradict other biblical accounts of God's dealings with foreign nations?</a> <a href="/q/how_is_assyria's_use_morally_consistent.htm">Isaiah 10:5-6: How does using a ruthless nation like Assyria as an instrument of punishment align with moral consistency?</a> <a href="/q/how_do_rahab_and_babylon_belong_to_zion.htm">Psalm 87:4 - How can Rahab (often associated with Egypt) and Babylon both be said to belong to Zion if they were historically distinct cultures?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/10.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(24) O my people . . . be not afraid of the Assyrian.--The practical conclusion of all that has been said is, that the people should not give way to panic as they had done in the days of Ahaz (<a href="/isaiah/7-2.htm" title="And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim.

They were not to faint beneath the blows of the "rod" and "staff," even though it were to reproduce the tyranny of Egypt. In that very phrase, "after the manner of Egypt," there was a ground of hope, for the cruelty of Pharaoh was followed by the Exodus. As the later Jewish proverb had it, "When the tale of bricks is doubled, then Moses is born."<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/isaiah/10.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 24. - O my people... be not afraid. God now addresses those who are faithful to him among the people; they have no need to fear - he will bring them safely through all the coming troubles. He shall smite thee; rather, if he smite thee; or, though he smite thee. After the manner of Egypt; i.e. as the Egyptians did in the oppression that preceded the Exodus. The yoke of Assyria was heavy even upon the nations that submitted to her. She claimed to march her armies through their territories at her pleasure, and probably pressed men and cattle into her service. She exacted a heavy tribute, and otherwise "distressed" her many vassals. <a href="/commentaries/isaiah/10-24.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Therefore, לָכֵ֗ן (lā·ḵên) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3651.htm">Strong's 3651: </a> So -- thus this is what כֹּֽה־ (kōh-) Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3541.htm">Strong's 3541: </a> Like this, thus, here, now the Lord אֲדֹנָ֤י (’ă·ḏō·nāy) Noun -
