Commentary

Commentary on Isaiah 21:2

Theological / Devotional

A grievous vision. Before the prophet’s gaze appeared a stern, sobering vision of a plundering power engaged in treachery, violence, and destruction. This was Babylon (see ch. 14:4, 6), “the treacherous dealer.” Elam and Media were called to go up against it and bring to an end the sighing and misery it had caused.
