Isaiah10:24
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion , be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod , and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt .
This is an Inference, not from the Words immediately foregoing, but from the whole Prophecy. Seeing the Assyrian shall be destroyed, and a Remnant of my People preserved and restored.
In Ierusalem, which is frequently called Sion, as Psal. 48. 12. & 87. 2. Isa. 1. 8, 27. & 33. 20. &c. Which he mentions, because this was the principal Object of the Assyrians Design and Rage, and there were the Temple, and Thrones of Justice, and the King and his Princes; and Multitudes had fled thither from the Assyrian,
He shall afflict thee, but not destroy thee. Compare 1 Kings 12. 11.
As the Egyptians formerly did, and with the same ill Success to themselves, and comfortable Issue to you.
Marginal references: Or, but he shall lift up his staff for thee.; Exod. 14.
