Isaías 37:28 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 37:28

But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in,
&c.] Where he dwelt, what he did at home, his secret councils, cabals, contrivances, schemes and plans for the compassing of his ends, the subduing of kingdoms, and setting up an universal monarchy; and his going out of Babylon, his marches, and counter marches, and his entrance into the land of Judea; there was not a motion made, or a step taken in the cabinet or camp, but what were known to the Lord; so the Targum,

``thy sitting in council, and thy going out abroad to make war, and thy coming into the land of Israel, are manifest before me:''

and thy rage against me;
against his people, against the city that was called by his name, against the temple where he was worshipped, particularly against his servant Hezekiah, because he would not immediately deliver up the city to him. The Targum and Syriac versions render it, "before me"; and then the meaning is, "thy rage", wrath and fury, "is before me": or manifest to me; and which he could restrain at pleasure, as he promises to do in the next verse.

Isaías 37:28 In-Context

26 '¿No has oído? Hace mucho tiempo que lo hice, desde la antiguedad lo había planeado. Ahora he hecho que suceda, para que conviertas las ciudades fortificadas en montones de ruinas.

27 'Sus habitantes, faltos de fuerzas, fueron desalentados y humillados; vinieron a ser como la vegetación del campo y como la hierba verde, como la hierba en los techos que se quema antes de que haya crecido.

28 'Pero conozco tu sentarte, tu salir y tu entrar, y tu furor contra mí.

29 'A causa de tu furor contra mí, y porque tu arrogancia ha subido hasta mis oídos, pondré, pues, mi garfio en tu nariz y mi freno en tu boca, y te haré volver por el camino por donde viniste.

30 'Esto te será por señal: Este año comeréis lo que crezca espontáneamente; el segundo año lo que nazca de por sí, y en el tercer año sembrad, segad, plantad viñas y comed su fruto.
