Isaiah 25:7

On this mountain he will swallow up the shroud that is over all the peoples, ¹  the woven covering that is over all the nations; ² 

Isa 60:1-3; Mt 27:51; Lu 2:32; Ac 17:30; 2Co 3:13-18; Eph 3:5,6; Eph 4:18; Eph 5:8; Heb 9:8,24; Heb 10:19-21

¹ tn The Hebrew text reads, “the face of the shroud, the shroud over all the nations.” Some emend the second הַלּוֹט (hallot) to a passive participle הַלּוּט (hallut, “that is wrapped”).

² sn The point of the imagery is unclear. Perhaps the shroud/covering referred to was associated with death in some way (see v. 8).
