Burden - The burden of the Assyrian. The anointing - Possibly this may be understood of David, who is often mentioned in scripture by the name of God's anointed; and for whose sake, God gave many deliverances to the succeeding kings and ages, as is expressly affirmed, Kg1 11:32, Kg1 11:34. God declares that he would give this very deliverance from the Assyrian, for David's sake, Kg2 19:34, Kg2 20:6. But the Messiah is principally intended, of whom David was but a type; and who was in a particular manner anointed above his fellows, as is said, Psa 45:7. For he is the foundation of all the promises, Co2 1:20, and of all the deliverances and mercies granted to God's people in all ages. Isaiah 10:28
