Isaiah 7
READING LIST FOR POETRY AND PROPHECY
Today's Reading is Isaiah 7.18-25, Psalm 38
Isaiah 7.18-25
Notice the phrase 'In that day' v. 18, 20, and 23. The Assyrians would invade Judah. In v. 18 flies and bees from Assyria is mentioned which is similar to Exodus 23.28 meaning some agent would to diable or frighten the people so they would not resist the invasion, this time from Assyria. The last time in Exodus 23, it was the inhabitants of Canaan who were frightened and the Israelites invaded them. Now the table is reversed!
In v. 20, God is using Assyria as a razor to punish Judah 'to shave your head and and the hair of your legs and to take off your beard also.' The shaving of hair from one's body iwas a great insult (2Samuel 10.4-5) as seen the reaction of David when his men had half their beard shaved off.
In v. 23 even though the land is full of milk they would end up eating curd and honey, meaning that there would be a return to a simple diet because the Assyrian invasion would destroy the agricultural resources. There will be brier and thorns meaning that the destruction of the vineyard will be fulfilled in Isaiah 5.5-6.

Bible Commentaries for Today's Reading Verse by Verse: Psalm 38:1-22
Psalm 38 is a petition from David to God to heal from his illness. His friends left him (ver. 11) and his enemies (ver. 12,16,19-20) seek his life and tried to harm him. Despite his problems, he did not forget God and ask God not to forsake him (ver. 21-22). What about you, when you have pain and tribulation, who do you turn to?
We saw Jairus, the woman with bleeding and now, David all turning to God in FAITH to heal them.
