Isaiah 65:15

Your name. Compare Jer. 29:22. The name of these apostate Jews would be used in formulas of imprecation.

Shall slay thee. See v. 12.

Another name. See on ch. 62:2. Dead Sea scroll 1QIs has an extended omission here running into v. 16. It leaves out the words “and call his servants by another name: that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself,” and substitutes the word “continually,” making the last clause of v. 15 read, “for the Lord God shall slay thee continually.” At the beginning of v. 16 it adds the words, “and it shall be that the one blessing himself,” making the first part of v. 16 read, “and it shall be that the one swearing by the God of truth and swearing in the earth shall swear by the God of truth.” Interestingly, the scribe left a blank space of nearly a line in his manuscript. He was apparently copying from a defective manuscript and this represents his attempt to emend or to restore the text.
