Isaiah 37:3
Excerpted from: The Time of Jacob's Trouble

We spent quite some time considering why Jacob’s Trouble is necessary, and now we will turn to look at what God intends for it to produce. The word translated “trouble” carries some of the same themes as the intensity of childbirth, such as distress, anguish, adversity, affliction, as well as tribulation. Remember that Jesus foretold of a time of great tribulation. What is more, in several other places, this word for trouble is specifically used to describe a difficult birth (II Kings 19:3; Isaiah 37:3; Jeremiah 4:31; 6:24; 49:24; 50:43). This means that there is at least a hint of the theme of childbirth even in the name, Jacob’s Trouble. It is the time when Jacob goes through great travail and anguish, but God brings a remnant through and delivers them from their captors, and a birth happens, as we will see.
