“And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:”
Isaiah 5:15 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 5:15
Echoing 2:9, 11, 17, the promise that 'the mean man shall be brought down' and 'the mighty man shall be humbled' reiterates judgment's leveling effect. The phrase 'the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled' emphasizes pride's universal subjection to divine authority. This pattern—human exaltation brought low, divine glory exalted—pervades Scripture, anticipating Mary's Magnificat (Luke 1:52) and James' teaching that God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6).
