Encouragement to Israel

In this section, the prophet shows that God treats sincere people differently from hypocrites, even during the same crisis. When Sennacherib and the Assyrians attack, God warns those who are false in their faith, but He gives comfort to those who are truly His. The punishment comes because of the sins of some, but the rescue and hope are for those who trust in God.

v. 24: God tells His people in Zion not to be afraid of the Assyrians. Even though danger is coming, God does not want His true people to be terrified. Those who live close to God and worship in Zion are under His protection. They should feel safe and trust Him (O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian,; see also Psalm 48:13 ^a).
