ESAY XX.

IN the year that Tarton took Ashdod, Esay hath another Prophesie against Egypt, and one against Ethiopia: Tartan was an Assyrian chief Commander under Sennacherib, 2 Kings 18. 17. and it is very probable that he died among the 185000 men that were slain by the Angel, 2 Kings 19. ver. 35. 2 Chron. 32. 21. And so his taking of Ashdod must fall out before that time; And this consideration doth help very well to know the time and method of this Chapter. Esay was now in sackcloth, mourning belike for the ten Tribes captiving: And the Assyrian Army is now abroad taking in Cities and places as fast as it can; and the Lord in this Chapter threatens the two most potent Kingdoms then extant, Egypt and Cush, that they shall both be captived and shamefully used by Assyriah. Tarhakah King of Cush faceth Senacherib, 2 King. 19. 9. and is foiled by him, as appeareth, Chap, 43. 3.
