Commentary on Isaiah 10:16
God's judgment on Assyria is described as 'leanness' (wasting disease) among their fat ones (warriors/nobles) and 'burning like fire' under their glory. The imagery suggests consuming judgment—what appeared strong and glorious will be devoured. This demonstrates poetic justice—Assyria consumed nations, so God will consume Assyria. The physical descriptions (leanness, burning) may indicate literal plague and destruction, or metaphorically depict comprehensive judgment.
