Isaiah 36:7 KJV
But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
Thou and Ye
- thou one person
- ye more than one
In the King James Bible, thee, thou, thy, and thine always mean one person, and ye, you, and your more than one: a difference modern English lost. Why keep these words?
Matthew Henry
- Isaiah 36:1–22See 2 Kgs 18:17–37, and the commentary thereon.
