  1  The prophet mourns the invasion of Jewry.
 8  He reproves their human wisdom and worldly joy.
15  He prophesies Shebna's deprivation,
20  and the substitution of Eliakim, prefiguring the kingdom of
    Christ.


VERSE 1
- A.M. cir. 3292.  B.C. cir. 712.  the valley.
  Jerusalem being situated in the midst of surrounding hills,
  and the seat of Divine revelation, is here termed "the valley
  of vision."  This prophecy foretells the invasion of
  Jerusalem by the Assyrians under Sennacherib; and probably
  also, by the Chaldeans under Nebuchadnezzar.

   * Ps 125:2 Jer 21:13
- of vision.

- that thou.
  The eastern houses are built with a court within, into which
  chiefly the windows open; those that open to the street being
  so obstructed with lattice work, that no one can see through
  them.  Whenever, therefore, any thing is to be seen or heard
  in the streets, any public spectacle, or any alarm, everyone
  immediately goes up to the house-top to satisfy his
  curiosity.  Hence all the people running to the top of their
  houses, gives a lively image of a sudden general alarm.

  There are some monuments still remaining in Persia, of great
  antiquity, says Bp. Lowth, called Naksi Rustam, which give a
  clear idea of Shebna's pompous design for his sepulchre.
  They consist of several sepulchres, each of them hewn in a
  high rock near the top.  The front of the rock to the valley
  below is adorned with carved work in relief, being the
  outside of the sepulchre.  Some of these sepulchres are about
  thirty feet in the perpendicular from the valley, which is
  itself raised perhaps about half as much by the accumulation
  of the earth since they were made.

VERSE 22

  As the robe and the baldric, mentioned in the preceding
  verse, were the ensigns of power and authority; so likewise
  was the key the mark of office, either sacred or civil.  To
  comprehend how the key could be borne on the shoulder, it
  will be sufficient to observe, that the ancient keys were of
  considerable magnitude, and much bent.
