Isaiah 8:19
Should not a people seek "Should they seek" - After yidrosh , the Septuagint, repeating the word, read hayidrosh : ; ; Should not a nation seek unto its God? Why should you seek unto the dead concerning the living? and this repetition of the verb seems necessary to the sense; and, as Procopius on the place observes, it strongly expresses the prophet' s indignation at their folly.
