Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will drive thee from thy station,.... Or thou shalt be driven from it, according to my word; this is said by the prophet, and expresses his being degraded from his office by the king, according to the will of God:
and from thy state shall he pull thee down; either the king his master, or the Lord, who, by his providence, would so order it, that it should be: the phrases express indignation and force, and an entire removal of him from all offices in the king's house or government; for it does not at all seem likely, what is commonly suggested, that he was removed from his office of treasurer, or steward of the king's house, and put into a lower office, and made a scribe, as he is called,
Isaiah 37:2 besides, the words preceding show that he should be carried captive into another land.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And from thy state - From thy office; thy place of trust and responsibility.
Shall he pull thee down - That is, “God” shall do it. The prophet here uses the third person instead of the first. Such a change of person is very common in the writings of the prophets (see Stuart’s “Heb. Gram.” 563-565, sixth Ed.)
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Isaiah 22:19. I will drive thee — אהרסך ehersecha, in the first person, Syr. Vulg.
