7:5Syria has plotted with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah to bring about your demise.127:6They say, “Let’s attack Judah, terrorize it, and conquer it.13 Then we’ll set up the son of Tabeel as its king.”14
Footnotes
- 12 This sentence opens with the conjunction יַעַן כִּי (ya’an ki, “because”). Consequently some take vv. 5–6 with what precedes, as another reason why Ahaz might be tempted to fear (see v. 4). However, it is more likely that vv. 5–6 give the basis for the Lord’s announcement in vv. 7–9. The conjunction יַעַן כִּי here introduces the basis for judgment (as in 3:16; 8:6; 29:13), which is then followed by the formal announcement of judgment.
- 13 Heb “and let us break it open for ourselves”; “make for ourselves a breach in its walls”; “fight our way into.”
- 14 Heb “and we will make the son of Tabeel king in its midst.” The precise identity of this would-be puppet king is unknown. He may have been a Syrian official or the ruler of one of the small neighboring states. See Y. Aharoni, Land of the Bible, 370.

And set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal:
