Scripture Pages that Link to Here
- The Lord exalts the lowly and lowers the exalted. This may happen now or at the Day of justice. (In the example given in this passage, it happened now.) Ultimately, the arrogant (= the wicked, v. 9) will not survive in his presence.
- (when God judged Israel) The proud will be brought low. In contrast, God will be exalted, and shown to be righteous and just.
- Thinking highly of themselves, proud and boastful. A matter of self-exaltation.
- Isa 5:21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
