Isaiah 15
Book of Isaiah
Isaiah 15:1 The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste,
and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence;
2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall
howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every
beard cut off.
3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of
their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.
4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz:
therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous
unto him.
5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer
of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go
it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.
6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the
grass faileth, there is no green thing.
7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up,
shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
8 For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto
Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer–elim.
9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon
Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
