Isaiah 8:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 8:4

2 And I will take for Myself faithful witnesses to record, ^aUriah the priest and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.”

3 Then I went to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then the Lord said to me, “Call his name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz;

4 ^afor before the child shall have knowledge to cry ‘My father’ and ‘My mother,’ ^bthe riches of Damascus and the² spoil of Samaria will be taken away before the king of Assyria.”

5 The Lord also spoke to me again, saying:

6 “Inasmuch as these people refused
The waters of ^aShiloah that flow softly,
And rejoice ^bin Rezin and in Remaliah’s son;
