Isaiah 13:17
_ _ Medes — (Isaiah 21:2; Jeremiah 51:11, Jeremiah 51:28). At that time they were subject to Assyria; subsequently Arbaces, satrap of Media, revolted against the effeminate Sardanapalus, king of Assyria, destroyed Nineveh, and became king of Media, in the ninth century b.c.
_ _ not regard silver — In vain will one try to buy his life from them for a ransom. The heathen Xenophon (Cyropaedia, 5, 1, 10) represents Cyrus as attributing this characteristic to the Medes, disregard of riches. A curious confirmation of this prophecy. |

Medes — Under whom he comprehends the Persians. Not delight — Which is to be understood comparatively. They shall more eagerly pursue the destruction of the people, than the getting of spoil. |

Jeremiah 51:11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device [is] against Babylon, to destroy it; because it [is] the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.

Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
