Isaiah's point about false worship solidifies in
ch2, relates to 'trusting in man'; in ch5, Isaiah condemns the
arrogant attitude/s of God's people; e.g., '..you live alone in the
land' (5:8), a criticism of their
economics which reflects their real poverty (lording
themselves over the poor)..apparently such poverty results primarily
from man-centeredness witnessed in the philosophy partic
of the/ir religious establishment (cp. 3:12, 14);
also,
5:14 does not mention 'hell'--its about a blessed society trapped in the
throes of (its) spiritual suicide On Fri, 3 Jun 2005 23:44:34 -0400 Judy Taylor
