Isaiah 9:10 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 9:10
This verse exemplifies prideful impenitence. Rather than humbling themselves under judgment, they boast of rebuilding bigger and better. 'The bricks are fallen down' acknowledges destruction but not its cause. 'We will build with hewn stones' vows to construct more durable buildings. 'Sycamores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars' promises to replace common trees with premium timber. This illustrates the unregenerate heart's response to judgment—self-reliance and proud determination rather than repentance. Human pride remains defiant even under divine discipline.
