Shall be full of chariots,
And the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
You looked in that day to the armor bof the House of the Forest;
That it was great;
And you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
For the water of the old bpool.
But you did not look to its Maker,
Nor did you have respect for Him who fashioned it long ago.

Isaiah 22:8
He - The enemy. Covering - He took those fenced cities, which were a covering or safe - guard both to the people of Judah, and to Jerusalem. The armour - Thy trust was placed in the arm of flesh. The forest - More fully called the house of the forest of Lebanon, I Kings 7:2, not because it was built in Lebanon, for it was in Jerusalem; but because it was built of the trees of Lebanon.
