This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
O ye people; Syrians and Israelites. Immanuel’s name inspireth the prophet with new courage, and makes him send a challenge to all God’s enemies, and foretell their certain downfall.
Ye of far countries; whosoever you be, whether far or near, who do or shall conspire against Immanuel’s land.
Gird yourselves with sword and belt; prepare yourselves for war.
Ye shall be broken in pieces: this is repeated for the greater assurance of the thing, and the comfort of God’s people, who are apt to despond upon such occasions.
