85–Blaspheming God

 

The Rabshakeh uses the same voice as he spoke before, but with a different tactic. He stood in this position to focus attention upon himself. In this position and in these words the voice and attitude of Satan are obvious, pride and self-aggrandizement. One aspect of this situation to be aware of is of Sennacherib. He is a type of the antichrist and as such is driven by Satan. The Rabshakeh his servant wants to strike terror into them, stirring them up to mutiny, rebellion, so as to petition their governors to give up the city to the Assyrians. The Rabshakeh transforms his haughty words into haughty action. In, addressing the people themselves he is keeping with the Assyrian strategy of psychological intimidation. He blasphemes God.
