Isaiah 10 alludes to the ‘fat’ which some scholars believe to be a reference to the ‘oil’ or the ‘anointed One, Jesus.” (David Guzik) ” Today is a beautiful day, because Isaiah’s prophecy is both for the present in his time and for the future in our time. “Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: ‘O my people, who dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrians when they strike with the rod and lift up their staff against you as the Egyptians did. For in a very little while my fury will come to an end, and my anger will be directed to their destruction. And the Lord of hosts will wield against them a whip, as when he struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. And his staff will be over the sea, and he will lift it as he did in Egypt. And in that day his burden will depart from your shoulder, and his yoke from your neck; and the yoke will be broken because of the fat.” (Isaiah 10: 24-27 ESV)

Thus says the LORD
