Isaiah 8:10
"Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

Take counsel together,.... As Rezin king of Syria, and Remaliah's son, did against Judah, Isa 7:5 , it shall come to nought; for, though they came up against it, they

could not overcome it, Kg2 16:5 , speak the word; what they intended, resolved upon, and determined to do; this is the issue of their counsels: and it shall not stand; See Gill on Isa 7:7 , for God is with us; which is the interpretation of the name "Immanuel": and which shows that the reason why the consultations and resolutions of the enemies of Judah could not take place, so as to destroy it, was because Immanuel, the virgin's son, was to be born in it.
