Ibn Ezra, on Isa 10:27

“And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall putrify at the presence of the oil.”

“His burden. The burden imposed by the King of Assyria. Thy neck. Judah’s neck. וחבל. And shall be destroyed. Comp. וְחִבֵּל, And he will destroy (Eccl. 5:5). The yoke is broken, when the neck has become very fat; it is a figurative expression for, Judah will become mighty.”
