ISAIAH 10

JUDGMENT ON ASSYRIA 

Isaiah rebukes those who are oppressors and liars, warning them of the wrath that awaits them. Specifically, God warns Assyria of their impending doom. Although Assyria opposes God’s people, God is still able to use them for His purposes, aligning them with His plans as opposition to the rebellious nation. God will allow the Assyrians to wipe out the faithless in Israel.

However, after they have served God’s purpose the Assyrians will also be struck down and destroyed due to their pride and arrogance. Although they will defeat Israel, God has the final say.

God will protect the faithful remnant of Israel and remove Assyria as their oppressor, and foretell a time when they will eventually return to their land after the exile.
