Yet today
This phrase indicates immediacy and urgency. In the context of Isaiah's prophecy, it suggests a pivotal moment in time. The Hebrew word for "today" (הַיּוֹם, hayom) often signifies a critical juncture, emphasizing the immediacy of God's intervention or judgment. Historically, this reflects the Assyrian army's rapid advance towards Jerusalem, creating a sense of impending crisis.

they will halt
The Hebrew root for "halt" (עָמַד, amad) means to stand or stop. This suggests a temporary pause in the Assyrian advance, indicating a moment of divine intervention. Theologically, it reflects God's sovereignty over the nations, where even the mightiest armies are subject to His will. This pause is a precursor to God's deliverance of Jerusalem, highlighting His protective nature over His chosen city.

at Nob
Nob was a city of priests near Jerusalem, mentioned in 1 Samuel 21-22. Its mention here is significant as it represents the last staging point before reaching Jerusalem. Archaeologically, Nob's exact location is debated, but its proximity to Jerusalem underscores the threat level. Historically, it serves as a reminder of past events where God's intervention was necessary to protect His people.

shaking a fist
This phrase conveys defiance and aggression. The imagery of shaking a fist (נֹפֵף יָד, nofeph yad) is symbolic of Assyria's arrogance and hostility towards Jerusalem. In a broader scriptural context, it represents the futility of opposing God's plans. Theologically, it serves as a reminder of the ultimate downfall of prideful nations that challenge God's authority.

at the mount of the Daughter of Zion
"Daughter of Zion" is a poetic term for Jerusalem, emphasizing its cherished status in God's eyes. The "mount" refers to the elevated position of the city, both physically and spiritually. Historically, Zion is central to Jewish identity and God's covenant promises. This phrase underscores the sacredness of Jerusalem and God's unwavering commitment to its protection.

the hill of Jerusalem
The "hill" signifies the city's strategic and spiritual significance. Jerusalem's topography made it a formidable fortress, but its true strength lay in God's presence. Biblically, hills often symbolize places of divine encounter and revelation. This phrase reinforces the idea that Jerusalem, despite its vulnerabilities, is under divine guardianship, and its ultimate security rests in God's hands.

Verse 32. - As yet shall he remain at Nob that day; literally, yet that day (is he) at Nob to halt. The Assyrians pitch their camp at Nob, the priestly city destroyed by Saul (1 Samuel 22:19), 1 which was evidently within sight of Jerusalem. Major Wilson's conjecture, that it occupied the site of the later Scopus, is probable.
