In the context of Isaiah, this is a response to the Assyrian threat against Jerusalem. The term "arise" is often used in the Bible to denote God taking action on behalf of His people (<a href="/psalms/12-5.htm">Psalm 12:5</a>, <a href="/psalms/68.htm">Psalm 68:1</a>). It reflects a moment of divine judgment and deliverance, emphasizing God's sovereignty and readiness to defend His covenant people. Historically, this can be linked to the miraculous deliverance of Jerusalem from the Assyrian army during the reign of King Hezekiah (<a href="/2_kings/19-35.htm">2 Kings 19:35-36</a>).<p><b>“Now I will lift Myself up.”</b><br>This phrase indicates God's intention to demonstrate His power and authority. The lifting up of God is a theme that runs throughout Scripture, often associated with His majesty and glory (<a href="/psalms/113-5.htm">Psalm 113:5</a>, <a href="/isaiah/6.htm">Isaiah 6:1</a>). In the cultural context of the ancient Near East, deities were often depicted as being elevated or enthroned, symbolizing their supreme power. This lifting up can also be seen as a precursor to the ultimate exaltation of Christ, who was lifted up on the cross and later exalted to the right hand of God (<a href="/john/3-14.htm">John 3:14</a>, <a href="/philippians/2-9.htm">Philippians 2:9</a>).<p><b>“Now I will be exalted.”</b><br>The exaltation of God is a declaration of His ultimate victory and supremacy over all nations and powers. This is a recurring theme in Isaiah, where God's glory is revealed through His acts of salvation and judgment (<a href="/isaiah/2-11.htm">Isaiah 2:11</a>, <a href="/isaiah/5-16.htm">Isaiah 5:16</a>). Theologically, this points to the eschatological hope where God will be universally recognized and worshiped. It also foreshadows the exaltation of Jesus Christ, who, through His resurrection and ascension, is exalted above all (<a href="/ephesians/1-20.htm">Ephesians 1:20-21</a>).
