Isaiah 33:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 33:8

6 Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,
And the strength of salvation;
The fear of the Lord is His treasure.

7 Surely their valiant ones shall cry outside,
^aThe ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.

8 ^aThe highways lie waste,
The traveling man ceases.
^bHe has broken the covenant,
¹He has despised the² cities,
He regards no man.

9 ^aThe earth mourns and languishes,
Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;
Sharon is like a wilderness,
And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.

Impending Judgment on Zion

10 “Now^a I will rise,” says the Lord;
“Now I will be exalted,
Now I will lift Myself up.

11 ^aYou shall conceive chaff,
You shall bring forth stubble;
Your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
