the word--of command, for the assault of Jerusalem.
God is with us--"Immanuel" implies this (Num 14:9; Psa 46:7). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Take counsel together - This is an address to the same foreign nations. It refers to the designs which they would form to destroy the Jewish state.
Speak the word - That is, give the command - to overturn the nation of the Jews.
It shall not stand - It shall not be accomplished.
For God is with us - Hebrew 'For Immanuel.' It indicates the confidence of the prophet in view of the promise and the pledge. His reliance was there. Though the enemies were strong and mighty; though the confederacy was formidable; yet his simple reliance was in the name Immanuel! In this he had confidence, in spite of all the violent efforts and designs of the foes of Judah; see Num 14:9 :
Only, rebel not ye against the Lord:
Neither fear ye the people of the land;
For they are bread for us;
Their defense is departed from them,
And Jehovah is with us,
Fear thom not.
See also Psa 46:6-7 :
The heathen raged,
The kingdoms were moved.
He uttered his voice, the earth dissolved.
Jehovah of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. |
