In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house [is] neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
Isaiah 3:7 — KJV
I will not be an healer. This is the reply of the brother who had been urged to become ruler over the “ruin” (v. 6). The appeal is refused, and the position of “healer” goes unfilled. Not for him is the task of binding up other men’s wounds. If there is a work of restoration to be done, let another undertake the responsibility. Whether or not he possessed the qualifications, he would refuse the responsibility of leadership.
