John Trapp on Isaiah 10:24

Ver. 24. O my people that dwelleſt in Zion, be not afraid] Quàm paternè omnia! As a father beſpeaketh his little ſon paſſing with him thorow a dark entry, &c.

Non occidet te, quamvis vapules. Oecol. He ſhall ſmite thee with a rod] Chaſten thee, but not ſlay thee. Sinite virgam corripientem, ne ſentiatis malleum conterentem.

And ſhall lift up his ſtaffe againſt thee] Or, but he ſhall lift up his ſtaffe for thee (ſo ſome render it) i.e. God ſhall: and that, after the manner of Egypt, as of old he did for thy Fathers againſt Pharaoh.
