Ésaïe 28:10 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 28:10

For precept [must be] upon precept, precept upon precept,
&c.] Signifying, that they must be dealt with as children were, when first instructed in the rudiments of a language, first had one rule given them, and then another, and so one after another till they had gone through the whole: line upon line, line upon line;
who are taught first to write one line, and then another; or to draw one line, and write after that, and then another; or where to begin one line, and, when finished, where to begin another; for the allusion is to writing by line, and not to a line used in building, as Kimchi and Ben Melech think: here a little, [and] there a little;
a small lesson out of one book, and a small lesson out of another; a little one day, and a little on the next, and so on, that their memories may not be overburdened.

Ésaïe 28:10 In-Context

8 Toutes leurs tables sont pleines de vomissement et d'ordures; il n'y a plus de place!
9 "A qui veut-il enseigner la sagesse, et à qui faire entendre l'instruction? Est-ce à des enfants sevrés, arrachés à la mamelle?
10 Car il donne loi sur loi, loi sur loi, règle sur règle, règle sur règle, un peu ici, un peu là. "
11 Aussi c'est par des lèvres qui balbutient et par une langue étrangère qu'il parlera à ce peuple.
12 Il leur avait dit: C'est ici le repos, que vous donniez du repos à celui qui est accablé, c'est ici le soulagement. Mais ils n'ont pas voulu écouter.
