Isaiah 28:18,19 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

And your covenant with death shall be disannulled Made void, or of none effect. Ye shall be trodden down Namely, by the overflowing scourge, which you flattered yourselves should not come unto you. From the time that it goeth forth Namely, from me into the land, it shall assuredly, and with the first, seize upon and carry away you scoffers. Morning by mornin g it shall pass over, &c. It shall not only come to you, but it shall abide upon you; and when it hath passed over you, it shall return again to you, morning after morning, and shall follow you day and night, without giving you the least respite. It shall be a vexation to understand the report So dreadful shall the judgment be, that it shall strike you with horror when you only hear the rumour of its approach.

Isaiah 28:18-19

18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
