Isaiah 17:11 - Exposition

In the day ; or, in a day (Kay). Shalt thou make ; rather, thou makest . Each new slip that is planted is forced to take root and grow and flourish at once; the next morning it is expected to have formed its seed and reached perfection. So the harvest is hurried on; but when it is reached, the day of visitation has arrived—a day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
