The verse 1 is found in chapter 17 of Isaiah. Damascus and Ephraim appear united in a judgment that reduces cities and strongholds. Yet a remnant remains that turns its gaze toward the Holy One of Israel and abandons the altars made by its own hands. The contrast shows that judgment can produce a spiritual reorientation toward the true God.
