Jesaja 14:26 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 14:26

This [is] the purpose that is purposed upon the whole
earth,
&c] Or, "counsel that is counselled". The Targum is,

``all the inhabitants of the earth;''
and the Septuagint version, "the whole world", meaning the Assyrian empire, and all states depending on it; as the Roman empire is called, ( Luke 2:1 ) for this purpose respects not the end of the world, and the judgment of it at the last day, as some have thought; but the preceding prophecy, purpose, or counsel, concerning breaking and trampling under foot the Assyrians, and delivering the Jews from subjection to them: and this [is] the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations;
of which the Assyrian army consisted, or which made up the Assyrian monarchy, or depended on it, and fell with it. "Purpose" denotes the counsel, will, and decree of God, about this business; and "hand" the execution of it. The Targum renders it "power"; so "hand" and "counsel" go together in ( Acts 4:28 ) . The Targum is
``on all kingdoms.''

Jesaja 14:26 In-Context

24 De HEERE der heirscharen heeft gezworen, zeggende: Indien niet, gelijk Ik gedacht heb, het alzo geschiede, en gelijk Ik beraadslaagd heb, het bestaan zal!
25 Dat Ik Assur in Mijn land zal verbreken, en hem op Mijn bergen vertreden; opdat zijn juk van hen afwijke, en zijn last van hun schouder wijke.
26 Dit is de raadslag, die beraadslaagd is over dat ganse land; en dit is de hand, die uitgestrekt is over alle volken.
27 Want de HEERE der heirscharen heeft het in Zijn raad besloten, wie zal het dan breken? en Zijn hand is uitgestrekt, wie zal ze dan keren?
28 In het jaar, toen de koning Achaz stierf, geschiedde deze last.
