isaiah 27:7 Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?

isaiah 27:7 Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has He struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain, have they been slain?

7. him . . . those--Israel--Israel's enemies. Has God punished His people as severely as He has those enemies whom He employed to chastise Israel? No! Far from it. Israel, after trials, He will restore; Israel's enemies He will utterly destroy at last.
the slaughter of them that are slain by him--rather, "Is Israel slain according to the slaughter of the enemy slain?" the slaughter wherewith the enemy is slain [MAURER].

isaiah 27:7 Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has He struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain, have they been slain?
