Isaiah 22:6
_ _ Elam — the country stretching east from the Lower Tigris, answering to what was afterwards called Persia (see on Isaiah 21:2). Later, Elam was a province of Persia (Ezra 4:9). In Sennacherib’s time, Elam was subject to Assyria (2 Kings 18:11), and so furnished a contingent to its invading armies. Famed for the bow (Isaiah 13:18; Jeremiah 49:35), in which the Ethiopians alone excelled them.
_ _ with chariots of men and horsemen — that is, they used the bow both in chariots and on horseback. “Chariots of men,” that is, chariots in which men are borne, war chariots (compare Isaiah 21:7; Isaiah 21:9).
_ _ Kir — another people subject to Assyria (2 Kings 16:9); the region about the river Kur, between the Caspian and Black Seas.
_ _ uncovered — took off for the battle the leather covering of the shield, intended to protect the embossed figures on it from dust or injury during the march. “The quiver” and “the shield” express two classes — light and heavy armed troops. |
Isaiah 22:6
Elam — The Persians, who now, and for a long time after, were subject to the Assyrian and Chaldean emperors. Quiver — Being expert bowmen. Horsemen — As some fought on foot, so others fought from chariots and horses. Kir — The Medes, so called from Kir, an eminent city and region of Media. Uncovered — Prepared it and themselves for the battle. |
Isaiah 22:6
And Elam (i) bore the quiver with chariots of men [and] horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
(i) He reminds them how God delivered them once from Sennacherib, who brought the Persians and Syrians with him, that they might by returning to God avoid that great plague which they would suffer by Nebuchadnezzar. |
