Thine hand shall be lifted up - In Isa 26:11 it is Jehovah’s hand that is lifted up; here Israel’s as Mic 5:8 implies, just as “Zion” is addressed and directed to “beat in pieces many people” (Mic 4:13; compare Isa 54:15, Isa 54:17). For Israel’s foes are Jehovah’s foes. When her hand is said to be lifted up, it is Jehovah’s hand that strikes the foe by her (compare Exo 13:9, with Exo 14:8).
