Thomas Aquinas, on Isa 10:32

“It is yet day enough, to remain in Nobe: he shall shake his hand against the mountain of the daughter of Sion, the hill of Jerusalem.”

“The voice of Sennacherib to his army: take courage: it is yet day enough, to remain in Nobe, which is a village near Jerusalem; as if to say: there is yet enough of the day that we can pitch our tents there, for it had been foretold to him that, if he drove to that point on that day, it would be conquered. Or: you inhabitants of Gabim, take courage, for the enemy is near. He shall shake his hand, like someone threatening, below: against the Holy One of Israel. By the hand of your servants you have reproached the Lord (Isa 37:23–24).”
