Scripture focus
My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives [shall flee] unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
Isaiah 15:5 — KJV
My heart. So terrible is the scene pictured to the prophet that his own heart is touched with pity and he cries out in sympathy for the stricken people.
Zoar. This city was probably near the southern extremity of the Dead Sea. It was temporarily spared at the time of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, later destroyed, and then, apparently, rebuilt (see on Gen. 19:22-24, 30).
An heifer of three years old. Possibly, by a reconstruction of the Hebrew text, Eglath shelishiyyah, “Eglath the third,” and if so, a town in the vicinity of Zoar.
Luhith. Compare Jer. 48:5. The site of this city is unknown.
Horonaim. This is mentioned by Mesha on the Moabite Stone (see on v. 1) as a city captured by him upon the directions of Chemosh. It is mentioned again in Jer. 48:3, 5, 34.
