Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Ahora entonces, te pido que hagas un trato con mi señor, el rey de Asiria. Te daré dos mil caballos si puedes encontrar suficientes jinetes para montarlos.
El rey de Asiria desafía burlonamente ofreciendo caballos, sabiendo que no tienen suficientes soldados para montarlos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse is part of the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem around 701 BC, when the powerful Assyrian army surrounded the city during King Hezekiah's reign. The Assyrian field commander (called the Rabshakeh) was using psychological warfare, taunting the people of Jerusalem by highlighting their military inferiority. Horses were crucial for ancient warfare, but having horses without skilled cavalry was useless.
