Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?
¿No cayó Calno como Carquemis? ¿No fue conquistada Hamat como Arfad? ¿No fue derrotada Samaria como Damasco?
Dios muestra que todas las ciudades poderosas han caído de la misma manera, demostrando su supremo poder sobre las naciones.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 8th century BC, the Assyrian Empire was aggressively expanding its territory through military conquests, and the prophet Isaiah was addressing this threat to Judah and Israel. In this verse, Isaiah quotes the Assyrian king's boastful rhetoric, comparing fallen cities like Calno to Carchemish and Hamath to Arpad, to illustrate their overconfidence in overpowering strongholds such as Samaria and Damascus. This reflects the historical reality of Assyria's campaigns against these ancient Near Eastern cities, which were key political and cultural centers in Syria and Israel.
