Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 19:17

_ _ Judah ... terror unto Egypt — not by itself: but at this time Hezekiah was the active subordinate ally of Assyria in its invasion of Egypt under Sargon. Similarly to the alliance of Judah with Assyria here is 2 Kings 23:29, where Josiah takes the field against Pharaoh-nechoh of Egypt, probably as ally of Assyria against Egypt [G. V. Smith]. Vitringa explains it that Egypt in its calamities would remember that prophets of Judah had foretold them, and so Judah would be “a terror unto Egypt.”

_ _ thereof — of Judah.

_ _ it — Egypt.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 19:1-17.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 19:17

A terror — Because of their manifold injuries against Judah, for which they now apprehend God is calling them to account. Determined — Because God is now about to execute his appointed judgments. It — Against Egypt.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 19:17

And the land of Judah shall be a terror (p) to Egypt, every one that maketh mention of it shall be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which he hath determined against it.

(p) Considering that through their opportunity the Jews did not make God their defence but put their trust in them, and were therefore now punished, they will fear least the same light on them.
