This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_30:3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt [your] confusion.
Ver. 3. Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame.] They that consult not with God "consult shame to their own houses"; {Heb_2:10} and because they despise him, they shall be lightly esteemed. {1Sa_2:30} When any came to Bacon and Burleigh, Queen Elizabeth’s gravest counsellors, with a project or design of raising her revenue, or promoting her interest, they would ask him how much reputation would redound unto her by it. Moses, who was faithful in all God’s house, had the like care of God’s glory, {Exo_32:10; Exo_32:12} and is therefore renowned to all posterity. But these apostates in the text, for carnal policy and contempt of God, are justly branded and threatened with disgrace and disappointment.
