Commentary on Isaiah 37:29

Theological / Devotional

Hook in thy nose. See on 2 Kings 19:28. The Assyrians frequently resorted to the utmost barbarity in their treatment of their victims. Sennacherib will be treated as he has treated others. The same figure is used of the treatment that will ultimately be meted out to all workers of iniquity (Isa. 30:28; Eze. 38:4).
