Isaiah 7:10-12
7:11 a A sign of confirmation would be performed before Ahaz’s eyes as a token of God’s truthfulness. His son Hezekiah would also receive such a sign (see 37:30 b).7:12 c I will not test the Lord like that: Despite this seemingly pious response (based on Deut 6:16 d), Ahaz was most likely already in negotiations with the Assyrians and had already decided whom he would trust for rescue in this war.
