Commentary on Isaiah 7:17

The warning that the LORD 'shall bring upon thee...days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria' introduces dark irony: Ahaz's chosen solution (Assyrian alliance) becomes his judgment. By trusting Assyria instead of God, Ahaz invites oppression worse than the divided kingdom. This demonstrates that seeking security apart from God brings greater danger. It anticipates Jesus' teaching that seeking to save life results in losing it (Matthew 16:25).
