Isaiah 20-21

It took almost 5 minutes to read this passage. Image getting the same assignment from God that Isaiah did in chapter 20: go about your daily routines unclothed and barefoot. I suspect that Isaiah might not have been completely naked. Even today it would be embarassing to prance around in just underware. Regardless of whether he was clothed or unclothed, this was his routine for 3 years. Three years of displaying your all-in-all, and then God gives you a message: such is the shame that your allies, in whom you trust, will wear as they are taken into captivity. The unspoken words should be evident: trust only in the Lord God.
