Isaiah 14:15
to hell—to Sheol (Isaiah 14:6), thou who hast said, "I will ascend into heaven" (Matthew 11:23).
sides of the pit—antithetical to the "sides of the north" (Isaiah 14:13). Thus the reference is to the sides of the sepulcher round which the dead were arranged in niches. But MAURER here, as in Isaiah 14:13, translates, "the extreme," or innermost parts of the sepulchre: as in Ezekiel 32:23 (compare I Samuel 24:3).
