Isaiah 2:7

Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots:

Their land also is full of silver and gold - forbidden to be heaped together, . Solomon disobeyed (; ).

Horses ... chariots - forbidden, . Solomon disobeyed (). Horses could be used effectively for war in the plains of Egypt; not so in the hilly Judea. God designed there should be as wide as possible a distinction between Israel and the Egyptians. He would have his people wholly dependent on Him, rather than on the ordinary means of warfare (). Also, horses were connected with idolatry (): so the transition to "idols" () is natural.
