Ibn Ezra, on Isa 41:23

“Shew the things that are to come hereafter, and we shall know that ye are gods. Do ye also good or evil, if you can: and let us speak, and see together.”

“האתיות Theat things that are to come. Comp. אתה cometh (21:12). לאחור hereafter it is the opposite of לפנים (Ruth 4:7). And know etc. We shall then know that you have power to do good or evil. ונשתעה that we may relate. Comp. ואשתעי the Chaldean translation of ויספר "and he related" (Ex. 48:18). Some explain it "and we shall turn unto it," and compare it with אל תשתע do not turn away.”
