Isaiah 22:2

Context

22:2 The noisy city is full of raucous sounds;

the town is filled with revelry. 1 

Your slain were not cut down by the sword;

they did not die in battle. 2 

1 tn Heb “the boisterous town.” The phrase is parallel to “the noisy city” in the preceding line.

2 sn Apparently they died from starvation during the siege that preceded the final conquest of the city. See J. N. Oswalt, Isaiah (NICOT), 1:409.
