Isaiah 7:6
6 Let us go up [`alah] against
Judah, [Yahuwdah] and vex [quwts] it, and let us make a breach [baqa`] therein for us, and set [malak] a king [melek] in the midst
[tavek] of it, even the son [ben] of Tabeal: [taba'el] KJV-Interlinear
6
"Let us go up against Judah and terrorize it, and make for ourselves a
breach in its walls, and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of
it," NASB
Judah means praised. Tabeal, a Syrian name, means pleasing to god
(a false god).
And so with a play on
words the enemy kings, Rezin, and Pekah, both conspired together to justify their
invasion of Judah under the guise that this invasion was just and right and
that God would be pleased with their choice of leadership.
They superimpose their
evil desires onto God and make God a partner by rhetoric. This is not an uncommon tactic of evil
people. They use God or some deity, in their
rhetoric in order to impress the general population and to justify their
actions. This leaves the impression that
just because Gods name is used, then it must be so.
That is how spiritually dysfunctional
people think. They are impressed by
things that are spoken publically, or published in written form publically such
as in the news media, without any verification.
Folks will take media at
face value and at the same time they will reject the Bible at its face
value. The Bible is truth, and most
media is empty rhetoric.
And these words are the
empty rhetoric and agenda of the northern nation of Israel and of Syria,
against Judah.
In their minds they will
invade, and lay siege and breach the city walls of Jerusalem and every other
cities, and force their submission to their will. They will place a king of their choice, one
of Syrian heritage, for the name is Syrian, in order to honor their own gods,
not the God of the Hebrews who is the one true God.
Judah is praised, they
are not. Christ is pleased with Judah,
while they are pleased with their own agenda and presumed success.
Jesus Christ controls
history and His will, is always accomplished.
Their will, controls nothing
but is driven and controlled by their collective sin natures.
God has a plan, which was
laid out in eternity past. Gods plan has
never changed and continues on course throughout history, regardless of the
many millennia that have passed.
Mans plans are temporary
and short lived, and always fail sooner or later.
