Theological / Devotional

A day of trouble. Isaiah pictures the day of trouble and distress when the enemy surrounds the city and breaks down its walls with battering rams, and when its people cry to the mountains in their anguish (see Isa. 2:19, 21; Hosea 10:8; cf. Luke 23:30; Rev. 6:16). The valley of vision. See on v. 1.
