Their land is full of silver and gold
The phrase "Their land is full of silver and gold" reflects the material wealth and prosperity of the nation of Judah during the time of Isaiah. The Hebrew word for "full" (מָלֵא, male) suggests an abundance or overflowing presence, indicating that wealth was not just present but prevalent. Historically, this period saw economic growth and accumulation of wealth, often leading to complacency and spiritual decline. From a conservative Christian perspective, this serves as a cautionary reminder that material wealth can lead to a false sense of security and distract from reliance on God. The Bible consistently warns against the love of money (1 Timothy 6:10), urging believers to seek treasures in heaven rather than on earth (Matthew 6:19-21).

there is no end to their treasures
The phrase "there is no end to their treasures" emphasizes the limitless accumulation of wealth. The Hebrew word for "treasures" (אוֹצָר, otsar) can refer to stored riches or valuable possessions. This abundance can lead to pride and self-sufficiency, which are spiritually dangerous. In the context of Isaiah's prophecy, this accumulation of wealth is seen as a symptom of the nation's spiritual malaise. The conservative Christian view would interpret this as a warning against the idolatry of wealth, reminding believers that true treasure is found in a relationship with God and in the pursuit of His kingdom (Matthew 6:33).

Their land is full of horses
The phrase "Their land is full of horses" indicates military strength and power. In ancient times, horses were a symbol of military might and were often associated with chariots in warfare. The Hebrew word for "horses" (סוּס, sus) is often used in the context of battle and conquest. This reliance on military power reflects a trust in human strength rather than in God. From a conservative Christian perspective, this serves as a reminder that true security comes from God, not from military or political power. The Bible frequently calls believers to trust in God's protection rather than in human means (Psalm 20:7).

there is no end to their chariots
The phrase "there is no end to their chariots" further underscores the military prowess and confidence of the nation. Chariots were advanced military technology in Isaiah's time, representing speed, strength, and strategic advantage. The Hebrew word for "chariots" (רֶכֶב, rekeb) is often associated with warfare and power. This reliance on chariots signifies a misplaced trust in human capabilities. From a conservative Christian viewpoint, this highlights the danger of placing faith in worldly power rather than in God's sovereignty. The Bible teaches that God is the ultimate source of strength and victory (Proverbs 21:31), and believers are called to depend on Him above all else.

(7) Their land also is full of silver and gold.--The long and prosperous reign of Uzziah, especially his trade with Ophir, had reproduced the wealth of the days of Solomon. Tribute came from the Arabians and Ammonites (2Chronicles 26:8). The words point to an earlier date than that at which Ahaz was left" naked and distressed" (2Chronicles 28:19). Even under Hezekiah, Sennacherib records in the inscription on the Taylor cylinder that the tribute paid by that king amounted to 30 talents of gold, and 800 talents of silver, besides wrought metal; and a like profusion of wealth, prior to Sennacherib's invasion, is shown in the account of Hezekiah's display of his treasures, in Isaiah 39:2 (Cheyne, in loc.; Records of the Past, i. 38).

Their land is also full of . . . chariots.--Here also the reign of Uzziah was like that of Solomon (1Kings 10:26-28). Chariots were used probably both for state pageants (Song of Solomon 1:9; Song of Solomon 3:9-10) and as part of the materiel of war (2Chronicles 1:14; 2Chronicles 9:25). Isaiah here also agrees with Micah (Micah 1:13) in looking on this as "the beginning of sin" (see Deuteronomy 17:16; 1Samuel 8:11). For him, as for Zechariah (Zechariah 9:9), the true King was to come, not with chariots and horses, but riding, as the judges of Israel had ridden (Judges 5:10; Judges 10:4; Judges 12:14), on "a colt, the foal of an ass." . . .

Verse 7. - Full of silver and gold. The results of the commercial activity - not evil things in themselves, but probably acquired by sharp dealing, and leading to undue softness and luxury. The Law had given a warning against "greatly multiplying silver and gold" (Deuteronomy 17:17). For the fact of the vast abundance of the precious metals in Judaea at this time, see 2 Kings 14:16; 2 Kings 20:13; 2 Chronicles 32:27; and compare Sennacherib's inscription on the Taylor Cylinder ('Ancient Monarchies,' vol. it. p. 163, 2nd edit.). Full of horses... chariots (comp. Micah 5:10). There is no reason to believe that the Jews or Israelites ever possessed (unless it were under Solomon) any considerable cavalry or chariot force. But from the time of David horses and chariots were imported for convenience and for show by the kings, the princes, and the nobles (see 2 Samuel 15:1; 1 Kings 4:26; 1 Kings 10:28, 29; 1 Kings 22:31; Ecclesiastes 10:7). Like the silver and the gold, they were signs of luxury and ostentation.
