# Isaiah 10 General Notes #
#### Structure and formatting ####
This chapter begins with a prophecy that is a continuation of the prophecy beginning in 8:22. Some translations prefer to set apart extended quotations, prayers or songs. The ULB and many other English translations indent the lines of 10:1-11, 13-14, 15-19, 27-34, which are extended quotations. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/prophet]])
#### Special concepts in this chapter ####
##### Yahweh's sovereignty #####
Yahweh has so much power and authority that he controls all of the nations. He even controls the nations who do not worship him. He uses Assyria to punish the kingdom of Israel.
#### Important figures of speech in this chapter ####
##### Rhetorical Questions #####
There are many rhetorical questions in this chapter. Yahweh uses rhetorical questions to make statements about Israel's sin. The Assyrians use rhetorical questions in order to boast in their pride. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]])
