Commentary on Isaiah 47:3

Theological / Devotional

I will not meet thee as a man. The meaning of this clause is not clear. The change of one letter in Hebrew would give the reading, “I will not loose a man,” that is, of those pictured as going into captivity. God will show no mercy to any Babylonian (see Jer. 50:3, 13, 14, 25, 29, 31, 40 ; 51:6, 22-24, 62).
