The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms #1
The Prophetical Books:
1. Internal Meaning of Isaiah, Chapter 1 (1)
1-8 The church has been vastated by evil of life, (3)
9 so that there is little of a residue. (3)
10-15 Therefore their external worship is of no avail. (3)
16-19 Exhortation that they should repent of the evil of life, and thus they will receive good. (3)
20-23They falsify the Word. (3)
24-27 The Lord when He comes will destroy them, and will establish the church with others; (1, 11)
28-31 This when nothing of the church remains with them. (3)
Isaiah 2:10-18
10
Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of Yahweh, and from the glory of his majesty.
11
The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the haughtiness of men will be bowed down, and Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day.
12
For there will be a day of Yahweh of Armies for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low:
13
For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
14
For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
15
For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
16
For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
17
The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.
18
The idols shall utterly pass away.
