Knowledge Through Faith or Force
Commentators explain that there are two ways to 'know' God. One is through faith, which is a life-giving knowledge. The other, described here, is a knowledge forced by judgment. The people of Judah, who had ignored God's prophets, would be compelled to recognize His power through their own destruction. This serves as a solemn warning to acknowledge God through His word now, rather than through His wrath later.
