Exegesis
The sentence culminates in the prepositional phrase al-kedosh Yisrael {עַל־קְד֥וֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל | ʿal-qəḏōš yiśrāʾēl} ‘against the Holy One of Israel,’ a climactic identification that resolves both questions and underscores that the arrogance is ultimately directed at the uniquely set-apart God bound to Israel.
In context — 2 Kings 19:22
Whom have you reproached and blasphemed, and against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel .
