Assyria, Babylon, or the Holocaust?
In Isaiah 3, he seems to be warning the Israelites of their impending capture & exile by the invading armies from Assyria and Babylon...or was he getting visions far into the future of a later captivity?
Isaiah 3:24 New International Reader's Version
24 Instead of smelling sweet, the women will smell bad. Instead of wearing belts, they will wear ropes. Instead of having beautiful hair, they won’t have any hair at all. Instead of wearing fine clothes, they’ll wear rough clothes to show how sad they are. Instead of being beautiful, on their bodies they’ll have the marks of their owners.
