Isaías 36:8 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 36:8

Now therefore give pledges to my master the king of Assyria,
&c.] Or; "hostages" F8; that thou wilt not rebel against him, but be faithful to him, and he will withdraw his army; or give security for the horses after promised: "or mingle thyself with him"; agree the matter with him, give pledges for future fidelity; or join in battle with him, come out and fight him, if able: and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part
to set riders on them;
thus scoffing at him, as if he had not so many soldiers to bring out against him; or so many men in his kingdom as had skill enough to ride a horse; in his bravado he signifies, that if he would come out and fight him, he would lend him so many horses, if he could put men upon them, to assist him; this he said as boasting of his master's strength and power, and in scorn and derision at Hezekiah's weakness.

Isaías 36:8 In-Context

6 Eis que confias no Egito, aquele bordão de cana quebrada que, se alguém se apoiar nele, lhe entrará pela mão, e a furará; assim é Faraó, rei do Egito, para com todos os que nele confiam.
7 Mas se me disseres: No Senhor, nosso Deus, confiamos; porventura não é esse aquele cujos altos e cujos altares Ezequias tirou, e disse a Judá e a Jerusalém: Perante este altar adorareis?
8 Ora, pois, faze uma aposta com o meu senhor, o rei da Assíria; dar-te-ei dois mil cavalos, se tu puderes dar cavaleiros para eles.
9 Como então poderás repelir um só príncipe dos menores servos do meu senhor, quando confias no Egito pelos carros e cavaleiros?
10 Porventura subi eu agora sem o Senhor contra esta terra, para destruí-la? O Senhor mesmo me disse: Sobe contra esta terra, e destrói-a.
