14. Restoration is promised to succeed














In a little more than a year
This phrase sets a specific timeframe, indicating a period of impending change or judgment. The Hebrew word for "year" is "שָׁנָה" (shanah), which can signify a cycle or repetition, often used in the context of agricultural or liturgical cycles. The phrase suggests urgency and a call to preparedness, reminding the reader of the biblical principle that God's timing is precise and His plans are certain. Historically, this could relate to the Assyrian threat during Isaiah's time, emphasizing the need for the people to heed prophetic warnings.

you will tremble
The word "tremble" in Hebrew is "רָגַז" (ragaz), which conveys a sense of quaking or shaking, often associated with fear or anxiety. This trembling is not just physical but also emotional and spiritual, indicating a deep disturbance. In the biblical context, trembling often accompanies the realization of God's holiness and the recognition of one's own sinfulness. It serves as a call to repentance and a reminder of the consequences of ignoring God's commands.

O complacent women
The term "complacent" is translated from the Hebrew "שַׁאֲנָן" (sha'anan), meaning at ease or secure. This phrase addresses those who are self-satisfied and unaware of the impending danger. In the cultural and historical context, women often represented the state of the household or community. Their complacency symbolizes a broader societal neglect of spiritual vigilance. The call is to awaken from spiritual slumber and to recognize the urgency of the times.

for the grape harvest will fail
The grape harvest is a symbol of prosperity and blessing in the agrarian society of ancient Israel. The Hebrew word for "fail" is "כָּלָה" (kalah), meaning to be finished or come to an end. This phrase indicates a cessation of abundance and a time of scarcity. Biblically, the failure of the harvest is often a sign of divine judgment or a call to return to God. It serves as a reminder of the dependence on God's provision and the consequences of turning away from Him.

and the fruit harvest will not arrive
The "fruit harvest" represents the expected outcomes of labor and the sustenance of the community. The Hebrew word for "arrive" is "בּוֹא" (bo), meaning to come or enter. The absence of the fruit harvest signifies unfulfilled expectations and the disruption of normal life. This serves as a metaphor for spiritual barrenness and the need for renewal and repentance. It underscores the biblical theme that true fruitfulness comes from abiding in God's will and aligning with His purposes.

(10) Many days and years . . .--Literally, days to the year, a phrase after the pattern of "add ye year to year" in Isaiah 29:1, but implying, not the long continuance of the trouble, but its quick arrival, as in "a year and a day."

The vintage shall fail . . .--The words are commonly taken as predicting a literal failure of the vine-crop, and therefore of the supply of wine for the banquets of the rich. A truer insight into the language of a poet-prophet would lead to our seeing in it a symbol of the failure of all forms of earthly joy.

Verse 10. - Many days and years shall ye be troubled; rather, in a year and days; i.e. "in less than two years." The object of the prophet is not to fix the duration of the trouble, but to mark the time of its commencement (comp. Isaiah 29:1). Shall ye be troubled; rather, shall ye tremble, or shudder (so Deuteronomy 2:25; Psalm 77:18; Psalm 99:1; Isaiah 5:25; Isaiah 64:2; Jeremiah 33:9, etc.). Ye careless women; rather, ye confident ones. The word is different from that employed in vers. 9 and 11. The vintage shall fail; literally, has failed - "the perfect of prophetic certitude" (Cheyne). Some critics understand a literal failure, or destruction, of the vintage through the invasion of the Assyrians. Others suggest a refer-once to Isaiah 5:4-7. The vineyard of the Lord (Judah) has utterly failed to bring forth grapes - there is no ingathering - therefore destruction shall fall upon it.
