the crown:
This chapter begins a new subject, chiefly relating to the devastations of Israel and Judah by the Assyrian kings. The ancient Samaria being beautifully situated on the top of a round hill, and surrounded immediately with a rich valley, and then a circle of other hills around it, suggested the idea of a chaplet, or wreath of flowers. "The crownª of pride,ª the drunkardsª of Ephraim,ª shall be troddenª° under feet:ª" {Isa 28:3} + "And the prideª of Israelª doth testifyª° to his face:ª therefore shall Israelª and Ephraimª fallª° in their iniquity;ª Judahª also¹ shall fallª° with¹ them." {Hsa 5:5} + "I have seenª° an horrible thingª in the houseª of Israel:ª there¹ [is] the whoredomª of Ephraim,ª Israelª is defiled.ª°" {Hsa 6:10}
drunkards:
"But theyª also¹ have erredª° through wine,ª and through strong drinkª are out of the way;ª° the priestª and the prophetª have erredª° through strong drink,ª they are swallowed upª° ofª wine,ª they are out of the wayª° through¹ strong drink;ª they errª° in vision,ª they stumbleª° [in] judgment.ª" {Isa 28:7} + "Woeª unto them that rise up earlyª° in the morning,ª [that] they may followª° strong drink;ª that continueª° until night,ª [till] wineª inflameª° them!" {Isa 5:11} + "Woeª unto [them that are] mightyª to drinkª° wine,ª and men²¹ of strengthª to mingleª° strong drink:ª" {Isa 5:22} + "Who¹ hath woe?ª who¹ hath sorrow?ª who¹ hath contentions?ª°² who¹ hath babbling?ª who¹ hath woundsª without cause?ª who¹ hath rednessª of eyes?ª" {Prv 23:29} + "Whoredomª and wineª and new wineª take awayª° the heart.ª" {Hsa 4:11} + "In the dayª of our kingª the princesª have made [him] sickª° with bottlesª of wine;ª¹ he stretched outª° his handª with¹ scorners.ª°" {Hsa 7:5} + "And they lay [themselves] downª° upon¹ clothesª laid to pledgeª° byª every¹ altar,ª and they drinkª° the wineª of the condemnedª° [in] the houseª of their god.ª" {Ams 2:8} + "But ye gave¹ the Nazaritesª wineª to drink;ª° and commandedª° the prophets,ª saying,ª° Prophesyª° not.¹" {Ams 2:12} + "That drinkª° wineª in bowls,ª and anointª° themselves with the chiefª ointments:ª but they are not¹ grievedª° for¹ the afflictionª of Joseph.ª" {Ams 6:6}
whose:
"And the gloriousª beauty,ª which¹ [is] on¹ the headª of the fatª valley,ª shall be¹ a fadingª° flower,ª [and] as the hasty fruitª before¹ the summer;ª which¹ [when] he that lookethª° upon it seeth,ª° while it is yet¹ in his handª he eateth it up.ª°" {Isa 28:4} + "For¹ the headª of Syriaª [is] Damascus,ª and the headª of Damascusª [is] Rezin;ª and within¹ threescoreª and fiveª yearsª shall Ephraimª be broken,²°¹ that it be not a people.ª¹ ... And the headª of Ephraimª [is] Samaria,ª and the headª of Samariaª [is] Remaliah'sª son.ª If¹ ye will not¹ believe,ª° surely¹ ye shall not¹ be established.ª°" {Isa 7:8-9} + "For¹ before¹ the childª shall have knowledgeª° to cry,ª° My father,ª and my mother,ª¹ the richesª of Damascusª and the spoilª of Samariaª shall be taken awayª° beforeª the kingª of Assyria.ª" {Isa 8:4} + "He¹ restoredª°¹ the coastª of Israelª from the enteringª°¹ of Hamathª unto¹ the seaª of the plain,ª according to the wordª of the LORDª Godª of Israel,ª which¹ he spakeª° by the handª of his servantª Jonah,ª the sonª of Amittai,ª the prophet,ª which¹ [was] of Gathhepher.ª¹ ... And the LORDª saidª° not¹ that he would blot outª°¹ the nameª of Israelª from under¹¹ heaven:ª but he savedª° them by the handª of Jeroboamª the sonª of Joash.ª" {2Kg 14:25-27} + "In the daysª of Pekahª kingª of Israelª cameª° Tiglathpileserª kingª of Assyria,ª and tookª°¹ Ijon,ª and Abelbethmaachah,ª and Janoah,ª and Kedesh,ª and Hazor,ª and Gilead,ª and Galilee,ª all¹ the landª of Naphtali,ª and carried them captiveª° to Assyria.ª" {2Kg 15:29} + "And at the endª¹ of threeª yearsª they tookª° it: [even] in the sixthª yearª of Hezekiah,ª that¹ [is] the ninthª yearª of Hosheaª kingª of Israel,ª Samariaª was taken.ª° ... Because¹¹ they obeyedª° not¹ the voiceª of the LORDª their God,ª but transgressedª°¹ his covenant,ª [and]¹ all¹ that¹ Mosesª the servantª of the LORDª commanded,ª° and would not¹ hearª° [them], nor¹ doª° [them]." {2Kg 18:10-12} + "For Pekahª the sonª of Remaliahª slewª° in Judahª an hundredª and twentyª thousandª in oneª day,ª [which were] all¹ valiant² men;ª¹ because they had forsakenª°¹ the LORDª Godª of their fathers.ª" {2Ch 28:6} + "So the postsª° went²°¹ with the lettersª fromª¹ the kingª and his princesª throughout all¹ Israelª and Judah,ª and according to the commandmentª of the king,ª saying,ª° Ye childrenª of Israel,ª turn againª° unto¹ the LORDª Godª of Abraham,ª Isaac,ª and Israel,ª and he will returnª° to¹ the remnantª° of you, that are escapedª out of the handª¹ of the kingsª of Assyria.ª ...
