Isaiah 28:20

For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap around oneself. ¹ 

Isa 57:12,13; Isa 59:5,6; Isa 64:6; Isa 66:3-6; Jer 7:8-10; Ro 9:30-32; 1Co 1:18-31

¹ sn The bed and blanket probably symbolize their false sense of security. A bed that is too short and a blanket that is too narrow may promise rest and protection from the cold, but in the end they are useless and disappointing. In the same way, their supposed treaty with death will prove useless and disappointing.
