Context — Sennacherib’s Blasphemous Letter

6who replied, “Tell your master that this is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid of the words you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. 7Behold, I will put a spirit in him so that he will hear a rumor and return to his own land, where I will cause him to fall by the sword.’”

8When the Rabshakeh heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish, he withdrew and found the king fighting against Libnah.

9Now Sennacherib had been warned about Tirhakah king of Cush: “He has set out to fight against you.” On hearing this, Sennacherib sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, 10“Give this message to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you by saying that Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.

Isaiah 37:8 Summary

This verse tells us that the Rabshakeh, a high-ranking official in the kingdom of Assyria, heard that his king had left the city of Lachish and was now fighting against the city of Libnah. This was all part of God's plan to distract the king of Assyria and save the city of Jerusalem, as prophesied in Isaiah 37:6. We can learn from this verse that God is always working behind the scenes, even when we don't see it, and that we can trust His plan, even when things seem uncertain (Psalm 23:4, Isaiah 40:28). By trusting in God's sovereignty, we can have peace and confidence, just like Hezekiah did in Isaiah 37:1-7.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the significance of the Rabshakeh hearing that the king of Assyria had left Lachish?

This event shows how God is working behind the scenes to fulfill His plans, as prophesied in Isaiah 37:7, where God says He will put a spirit in the king of Assyria to return to his own land.

Who is the Rabshakeh and what is his role in this story?

The Rabshakeh is a high-ranking official in the kingdom of Assyria, serving as a spokesperson for the king, as seen in his interactions with Hezekiah in Isaiah 36:4-22 and Isaiah 37:1-8.

What can we learn from the king of Assyria's decision to fight against Libnah?

This decision shows the king's focus on conquest and expansion, but also sets the stage for God's judgment on Assyria, as prophesied in Isaiah 10:5-19, where God declares His plan to judge Assyria for its pride and arrogance.

How does this verse relate to the overall story of Isaiah 37?

This verse is a pivotal moment in the story, as it shows how God is working to distract the king of Assyria and ultimately save Jerusalem from destruction, as prophesied in Isaiah 37:6 and fulfilled in Isaiah 37:36-38.

Reflection Questions

What are some ways that God is working behind the scenes in my life, even when I don't see it?
How can I trust God's plan, even when circumstances seem uncertain or frightening, like Hezekiah's situation in Isaiah 37:1-7?
What are some areas in my life where I need to trust God's sovereignty, like the king of Judah did in Isaiah 37:1-7, and how can I apply the lessons from this verse to those areas?
What can I learn from the example of the king of Assyria's pride and arrogance, and how can I avoid similar pitfalls in my own life, as warned against in Proverbs 16:18?

Gill's Exposition on Isaiah 37:8

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Isaiah 37:8

So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish. So Rabshakek returned - to the camp of his master.

Ellicott's Commentary on Isaiah 37:8

(8) Warring against Libnah . . . Lachish.—Both names occur in Joshua 15:39; Joshua 15:42, as belonging to Judah. The step would seem to indicate a strategic movement, intended to check the march of Tirhakah’s army; but in our ignorance of the topography, we can settle nothing further. By some writers Libnah has been identified with Pelusium, or some other town in the Delta of the Nile. The narrative seems, perhaps, to suggest something more than a transfer of the attack from one small fortress in Judah to another; but that is all that can be said.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Isaiah 37:8

Verse 8. Rabshakeh returned] From Isaiah 36:2, we learn that the king of Assyria had sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem; now it is likely that Rabshakeh had besieged that place, and that the king of Assyria had taken his station before this city, and despatched Rabshakeh against Jerusalem. But, as in the verse above it is said, "he had departed from Lachish," probably he had been obliged to raise the siege, and sat down before Libnah, which promised an easier conquest.

Cambridge Bible on Isaiah 37:8

8. Libnah] another of the “defenced cities” of Judah (Joshua 10:29). Its situation is not known.

Barnes' Notes on Isaiah 37:8

So Rabshakeh returned - Returned from Jerusalem to the camp of his master.

Whedon's Commentary on Isaiah 37:8

8, 9. Seeing no fruit of his commission, Rabshakeh returns to find Sennacherib, for some reason, not now at Lachish but invading Libnah, a city of the plain southwest of Jerusalem.
