“This is the burden against the Valley of Vision: What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the rooftops,”

Isaiah 22:1

Save as image

Study note

Isaiah 22 opens with an oracle about the Valley of Vision, a name for Jerusalem. The city is caught in a mood of revelry and false confidence while an enemy threatens, and the chapter also addresses a palace official named Shebna and the faithful Eliakim.
