In Isaiah 31, Isaiah continues his warnings about relying on Egypt for help. He speaks again of Assyria being destroyed. In the midst of these dire warnings, Isaiah speaks of a righteous king coming with honest princes ruling under him, how the Lord’s people will live in safety, quietly at home, and how the Lord will greatly bless his people.
After pointing out the fate of Assyria and Egypt specifically, he then addresses the nations of the earth. The Lord is “enraged against the nations…he will completely destroy them, dooming them to slaughter.
Tomorrow, we’ll be reading Isaiah 35 – 36.
Until next time…
