This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
“Egypt is vanity, and to no purpose will they help” [G. V. Smith].
strength - Hebrew, Rabah, a designation for Egypt (Isa 51:9; Psa 87:4), implying her haughty fierceness; translate, “Therefore I call her Arrogance that sitteth still.” She who boasted of the help she would give, when it came to the test, sat still (Isa 36:6). English Version agrees with Isa 30:15; Isa 7:4.
