Commentary on Isaiah 10:19

Theological / Devotional

The trees. That is, the people (see on v. 18). Reference may be made here to the loss of Sennacherib’s host before the gates of Jerusalem (ch. 37:36), inasmuch as Sennacherib and another part of his expeditionary forces succeeded in returning to Assyria (Isa. 37:37; see on 2 Kings 19:36). But after the “fire” (Isa. 10:16) had consumed the “forest” a very few “trees” remained — so few that a child could count them.
