Isaiah 7:3

Context
7:3 So the Lord told Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashub 1  and meet Ahaz at the end of the conduit of the upper pool which is located on the road to the field where they wash and dry cloth. 2 

1 tn The name means “a remnant will return.” Perhaps in this context, where the Lord is trying to encourage Ahaz, the name suggests that only a few of the enemy invaders will return home; the rest will be defeated.

2 tn Heb “the field of the washer”; traditionally “the fuller’s field” (so KJV, NAB, NASB, NRSV); NIV “the Washerman’s Field.”
