ISAIAH 14

JUDGMENT + WARNING TOWARDS ASSYRIA  

Because God is compassionate towards Israel, God promises to eventually restore Israel and Judah as rulers over their oppressors. God allows His nation to experience the consequences of sin while still giving them hope of restoration.

Isaiah rebukes Babylon’s pride, taunting their king and referencing their future of doom. Isaiah also speaks to the Assyrians, telling them that they will be shattered and God’s established plans will prevail. Finally, Isaiah speaks to the Philistines warning them of their coming destruction.
