Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
vex—rather, "throw into consternation" [GESENIUS].
make a breach—rather, "cleave it asunder." Their scheme was to divide a large portion of the territory between themselves, and set up a vassal king of their own over the rest.
son of Tabeal—unknown; a Syrian-sounding name, perhaps favored by a party in Jerusalem (Isaiah 3:6, Isaiah 3:9, Isaiah 3:12).
