ISAIAH CHAPTER 31

The folly and punishment of trust in Egypt, Isa_31:1-3. God will fight for Jerusalem, Isa_31:4,5, if they will turn unto him, Isa_31:6,7. The fall of Assyria, Isa_31:8,9.

That go down to Egypt for help; as the Jews did, contrary to God’s command, Deu_17:16.

And stay on horses; for Egypt had many and choice horses.

They look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord; their confidence in the creature was accompanied with and did produce a distrust of God, and a neglect of seeking to him by prayer for his help.
