The folly of trusting in
an arm of flesh is again pointed out, but only while
dwelling on the true means of deliverance. Jehovah at
Jerusalem would be in the midst of the nations as a lion
among the shepherds, and would defend Jerusalem as birds
hovering over it. His presence should overthrow the
Assyrian, and cause him to flee; for the fire of Jehovah
shall be in Zion, and His furnace in Jerusalem.
