God will hire a barber/razor

God will hire a barber/razor
Can someone elaborate the story in Isaiah 7:20 about Yahweh borrowing razor to shave pubic hair? Tq

In that day the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates River--the king of Assyria--to shave your heads and private parts, and to cut off your beards also.
Wherein both will be those (maidens) restraining their glances upon their husbands, whom no man or jinn yatmithhunna (has opened their hymens with sexual intercourse) before them (Quran  55:56, Mushin)

It's a metaphor for God using Assyrian military power to punish Judea for transgressions.  The removal of body hair is generally understood to mean that the Assyrians will strip Judea of all wealth and carry off the most important people.

No, it's clearly a metaphor - any biblical passage that looks utterly stupid is conveniently explained away as a metaphor.

the king of Assyria—to shave your head and private parts, and to cut off your beard also.

The king of Assyria is God's barber who will "cut their hair" meaning humiliate them and leave them defenseless.
