<p> | <p> In the margin of some of our Bibles, the translators have given the English of this name, as it is of several words, and they render it, making speed to the spoil; or he hasteneth to the prey. </p> <p> And when we consider that the prophet was commanded to mark the roll of the prophecy then delivered by this name, and also called the child he had by the prophetess by the same name, no doubt the matter became very significant. </p> <p> I would only detain the reader for one short observation upon it, just to remark, how very earnest the Lord's people were to carry, in the names of their children, continual records of the Lord's providences and dispensation. The prophet's son never heard himself called by this name, but it served to remind every faithful [[Israelite]] that heard it, of the Lord's hastening his purposes of redemption. And though the captivity of [[Babylon]] lay between, yet the glorious redemption from sin, death, hell, and the grave, by the Lord [[Jesus]] Christ, was seen beyond it. Hence faithful men were taken by the prophet to witness the record. (See Isaiah 8:1; Isa 8:3; Psalms 76:4) </p> | ||

<p> ("hasteth to the spoil, speedeth to the prey".) As Immanuel, Isaiah's (Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 8:1-4) first son by the virgin, was the sign of Judah's deliverance, so Maher-shalal-hash-baz the second son is the sign of destruction to Judah's enemies, [[Syria]] and Samaria. (See IMMANUEL.) [[Assyria]] will speedily spoil these. The prophet was to write Maher-shalal-hash-baz in a great roll with a man's pen, i.e. in ordinary characters, large enough for all to read, that after the event its correspondence to the prediction might be seen. [[Shearjashub]] (Isaiah 7:3, "a remnant shalt return") was another sign that [[Judah]] should not be utterly destroyed, notwithstanding its terrible defeat by [[Pekah]] of Israel, and notwithstanding Syria's confederacy with [[Israel]] against it (Isaiah 7:17-25; Isaiah 8:6-9). </p> | <p> ("hasteth to the spoil, speedeth to the prey".)

<p> (Heb. Maher'-Shalal'-Chash-Baz, מִהֵר שָׁלָל חָשׁ בִּז , speeding for booty he hastes to the spoil; Sept. ὀξέως προνομὴν ποιῆσαι σκύλων and Ταχέως σκύλευσον, ὀξέως προνόμευσον,Vulg. Velociter spolia detsrahe, cito praemdare and Accelera spolia detrahere, festiia pracedsci; for the grammatical construction, see Gesenius, Comment. ad loc.), words which the prophet Isaiah was first commanded to write in large characters upon a tablet, n and afterwards to give as a symbolical name to a son that was to be born to him (Isaiah 8:1; Isaiah 8:3). as prognostic of the sudden attack of [[Damascus]] and [[Syria]] by the [[Assyrian]] army (see Henderson's Comment. ad loc.). The child in question was evidently the prophet's son by "the prophetess" whom he espoused in pursuance of the divine mandate, and appears to have been the same with the one whose birth under the more Messianic title of IMMANUEL was at once a token to [[Ahaz]] of the coming defeat of his enemies (Isaiah 7:14-16), and an illustrious type of [[Gospel]] deliverance. B.C. 739. </p> | |||
