Isa. 14:12–15 fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! Using rich poetic imagery, the king of Babylon is addressed with sarcastic irony. From the great heights of his pride, arrogance, and rebellion against God, his downfall brings him to the depths of Sheol. Some have seen in these verses a poetic allusion in which the fallen king of Babylon is likened to a fallen Satan; see note on Ezek. 28:11–19.

Isa. 14:30–32 God promises safety for his own but fear for Philistia, which is left without a remnant.
