Concise Complete
Rabshakeh (the field commander) blasphemies.
Rabshakeh tries to convince the Jews, that it was to no purpose for them to
stand it out. What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? It were well if
sinners would submit to the force of this argument, in seeking peace with God.
It is, therefore, our wisdom to yield to him, because it is in vain to contend
with him: what confidence is that which those trust in who stand out against
him? A great deal of art there is in this speech of Rabshakeh; but a great deal
of pride, malice, falsehood, and blasphemy. Hezekiah's nobles held their peace.
There is a time to keep silence, as well as a time to speak; and there are those
to whom to offer any thing religious or rational, is to cast pearls before
swine. Their silence made Rabshakeh yet more proud and secure. It is often best
to leave such persons to rail and blaspheme; a decided expression of abhorrence
is the best testimony against them. The matter must be left to the Lord, who has
all hearts in his hands, committing ourselves unto him in humble submission,
believing hope, and fervent prayer.
