Commentary on Isaiah 8:10
The threefold repetition (verse 9-10) hammers home the futility of opposing God's purposes. 'Take counsel together' represents human wisdom and planning; 'it shall come to nought' declares its certain failure. 'Speak the word' suggests confident decree-making; 'it shall not stand' pronounces its impotence. The climactic reason: 'for God is with us' (Immanuel). This encapsulates the Reformed doctrine of God's irresistible will—human plans cannot override divine purposes. The presence of Immanuel guarantees the security of God's people.
