Isaiah 14:13
_ _ above ... God — In Daniel 8:10, “stars” express earthly potentates. “The stars” are often also used to express heavenly principalities (Job 38:7).
_ _ mount of the congregation — the place of solemn meeting between God and His people in the temple at Jerusalem. In Daniel 11:37, and 2 Thessalonians 2:4, this is attributed to Antichrist.
_ _ sides of the north — namely, the sides of Mount Moriah on which the temple was built; north of Mount Zion (Psalms 48:2). However, the parallelism supports the notion that the Babylonian king expresses himself according to his own, and not Jewish opinions (so in Isaiah 10:10) thus “mount of the congregation” will mean the northern mountain (perhaps in Armenia) fabled by the Babylonians to be the common meeting-place of their gods. “Both sides” imply the angle in which the sides meet; and so the expression comes to mean “the extreme parts of the north.” So the Hindus place the Meru, the dwelling-place of their gods, in the north, in the Himalayan mountains. So the Greeks, in the northern Olympus. The Persian followers of Zoroaster put the Ai-bordsch in the Caucasus north of them. The allusion to the stars harmonizes with this; namely, that those near the North Pole, the region of the aurora borealis (compare see on Job 23:9; Job 37:22) [Maurer, Septuagint, Syriac]. |
Isaiah 14:13
I — I will advance myself above the state of a weak man. Above — Above all other kings and potentates; or, above the most eminent persons of God's church. North — This is added as a more exact description of the place of the temple; it stood upon mount Moriah, which was northward from the hill of Zion strictly so called. |
Isaiah 14:13
For thou hast said in thy heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the (i) north:
(i) Meaning, Jerusalem of which the temple was of the north side, (Psalms 48:2). |
