Reading for April 15th

Read Isaiah 3.13-4.1. 3.13-4.1: The Lord's case against the people. The reasons for Judah's misfortune are detailed in a lawsuit which God is bringing against the people. In verses 15-16: Oppression of the poor and women who indulge in absurd luxury are outward signs of a spiritual sickness. Accordingly, God's punishment will fit the offense (v. 24): the horrors of warfare will reduce many of the women who had so pampered thmselves to a state of destitution (3.25-4.1).
