Isaiah 37:23
Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.

Study Note
The divine challenge 'Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel' identifies Sennacherib's blasphemy as directed specifically against YHWH's Isaianic title — 'the Holy One of Israel' — the name that marks divine covenant commitment combined with absolute transcendence. The body language of exalting the voice and lifting the eyes on high precisely inverts the appropriate posture before the Holy One — it is the posture of equals or of those above, applied to one created before his maker. The verse belongs to the Isaian 'Book of Immanuel' (chapters 7–12) and the Hezekiah narrative (chapters 36–39), which together frame the entire first movement of the book with the collision between Assyrian hubris and the Holy One's sovereignty. Isaiah 14:13–14 ('I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High') uses the same posture of cosmic overreach for Babylon, suggesting a typological pattern of imperial blasphemy.
