5 Nondimeno Absalom disse: "Chiamate ancora Hushai, l’Arkita, e sentiamo quel che anch’egli dirà".

Watch-tower

  

'A watchtower,' as in Isaiah 23:13, signifies the delusions, or fantasies, that come from a love of self, even a worship of oneself. It can become a worship of self when a person sets himself up above everybody else, with pride and arrogance.
