This verse speaks of the importance of trusting God rather than seeking help from political or military alliances.
Isaiah 30:7: "Egypt, whose aids are useless and vain; so I call him, 'Rahab, who extends lying down'." This verse refers to Egypt as "Rahab", a name that means proud or arrogant. Isaiah states that the pride of Egypt and his confidence in his own strength will be useless before the power of God.
