Imagine you have a secret hiding place for your toys, and one day, someone finds it. Instead of being scared, you look to your toy weapons for safety. That's what's happening here, but with a whole city!

历史背景

Isaiah wrote this around 700 BCE, addressing the people of Judah. At the time, Assyria was a powerful threat, and Judah was relying on its military strength rather than trusting God.
