Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 13. - O house of David (comp. ver. 2). It is not Ahaz alone, but the "house of David," which is on its trial. Men are conspiring to remove it (ver. 6). If it will not be saved in God's way, it will have to be removed by God himself. Is it a small thing for you to weary men? i.e. "Are you not content with wearying men; with disregarding all my warnings and so wearying me? Must you go further, and weary God" (or, "wear out his patience") "by rejecting his gracious offers?" My God. In ver. 11 Isaiah had called Jehovah "thy God;" but as Ahaz, by rejecting God's offer, had rejected God, he speaks of him now as "my God."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) Is it a small thing for you to weary men . . .--The thought that men may try the long-suffering of God till He is "weary to bear them," is specially characteristic of Isaiah (Isaiah 1:14). We mark the changed note of "my God," as compared with "the Lord thy God" in Isaiah 7:11. Ahaz has involved himself in a sentence of rejection. In the first part of the question Isaiah becomes the mouthpiece of a wide-spread hopeless discontent. Men also were 'weary' of this idolatrous and corrupt misgovernment (Isaiah 8:6).
