Isaiah 10:11

Listen to Isaiah 10:11
11 so won't I do to Yerushalayim and her non-gods what I did to Shomron and her idols?'"

Isaiah 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 10:11

Shall I not, as I have done to Samaria, and her idols,
&c.] Kimchi observes, that what is said in the preceding verses was said before Samaria was taken, but this after it was taken: so do to Jerusalem, and her idols;
he had taken Samaria, and carried the ten tribes captive, and now his eye was upon Judah and Jerusalem; and such was his insolence, impiety, and blasphemy, that he reckons the true God, whom the Jews worshipped, among the idols of the Gentiles, and upon a level with them, if not inferior to them, especially to his own idol, and thought himself superior to him.

Isaiah 10:11 In-Context

9 Hasn't Kalno [suffered] like Kark'mish, Hamat like Arpad, Shomron like Dammesek?
10 Just as my hand reached the kingdoms of non-gods, with more images than in Yerushalayim and Shomron;
11 so won't I do to Yerushalayim and her non-gods what I did to Shomron and her idols?'"
12 Therefore when Adonai has done everything he intends to do to Mount Tziyon and Yerushalayim, "I will punish the king of Ashur for the boasting that comes from his proud heart and from reveling in his arrogant looks.
13 For he says, "'With my own strong arm I have done this, and with my wisdom, because I'm so clever! I erased the boundaries between peoples, I plundered their stores for the future; as a mighty man, I subjugated the inhabitants.
