📚 Historical Context
In the book of Habakkuk, the prophet is deeply troubled by the widespread violence and injustice in Judah during the 7th century BC, questioning why God seems inactive. God responds by revealing that He will use the Babylonian empire, a fierce and idolatrous nation, as an instrument of judgment against Judah. This verse specifically describes the Babylonians' arrogance as they change their strategies, invade, commit offenses, and attribute their military success to their false gods.
