30. Textual variations include MT: hmydq mhynp, feminine, facing eastwards or conjecture by BHS, hmdq forward facing, but Habakkuk Pesher from Qumran has masculine, mydq east wind, cf. LXX, Tg, Syr: “The appearance of their faces”; Vg: “their faces move forward.”
31. lwxi sand.
32. rp( dust is parallel to lwx sand, so still possibly a metaphor for captives or victims heaped against the city walls as a berm to scramble over.
33. Mdqm meqedem.
34. rwc is a double entendre in this context because it often refers to utter reliability of Israel’s God, but it can be used of foreign gods actually hewn from stone, and by extension, their worshippers become the inflexible instrument of chastisement.

36. The English Standard Version is quoted in this section because, in these verses, it bears a word for word correspondence to the Hebrew text.
37. xykwhw was translated by LXX e1legcei, chose. The sense of rebuke, punish, discipline, has been followed by the Good News Version, KJV, and Douay Rheims American edition. Because people can be nations, the New Living Translation envisions international justice.

39. Isa 6:1–9:7 pertains to the Syro-Phonecian war during the time of Ahaz (735–33 BCE); Isa 20:1–6 notes the Phillistine revolt against Assyria (713–711 BCE); Isa 36–38 reports Isaiah’s interactions with Hezekiah during Sennacherib’s seige of Jerusalem in 701 BCE; Isa 39 relates to the rising Babylonian power during Merodach -baladan (721–710 BCE) (with HBC, 548).
40. Against an early date for Isa/Mic is the universal and eschatological expectation like those of Isa 40–65. But John D. W. Watts, Isaiah (WBC 24; Waco, Tex.: 1985), 28–29, and John Oswalt, The Book of Isaiah: Chapters 1–39 (Grand Rapids, Mich.: Eerdmans, 1986), 115, are most impressed by its genius, and so attribute it to pre-exilic Isaiah. Wiklander (Prophecy as Literature, 181, 201) places Isa 2:2–4 between 734–622, the reigns of Hezekiah or Josiah, composed by a scribal school that used diverse materials from diverse times and genres for rhetorical purposes. Marvin A. Sweeney, Isaiah 1–39: with an Introduction to Prophetic Literature (FOTL 16; Grand Rapids, Mich.: Eerdmans, 1996), 97–99, places it in the reign of Cyrus.
41. Hans Walter Wolff, Micah (trans. Gary Stansell; Minneapolis, Minn.: Augsberg, 1990), 85. For a full comparison of Isa 2:2–4 and Mic 4:1–3 and ancient translations with the conclusion that the final form is post-exilic because of its international vision see William McKane, The Book of Micah: Introduction and Commentary (Edinburgh: T & T Clark, 1998), 121.
42. For example, Joel 3:6 (MT 4:6) mentions Judeans enslaved to Mynwyh (LXX #Ellhne/j) “the Hellenes,” for which there is an exilic precedent in Ezek 27:13, “Hellas . . . traded with you [Tyre] in the persons of men.” Joel’s date of composition, however, can be argued either as contemporary with Ezekiel, or archaizing.
43. There are debates about all of these passages as to date. But cf. Jer 46:3, 50:14, 51:11 for similar calls to arms. See too, Gerhard von Rad, Old Testament Theology (trans. D. M. G. Stalker; 2 vols.; London; SCM, 1975), 2:408.
44. On this point, John Strazicich, Joel’s Use of Scripture and the Scripture’s Use of Joel: Appropriation and Resignification in Second Temple Judaism and Early Christianity (BibInt 82; Leiden: Brill, 2007), 233, n. 97, cites Mikhail Bakhtin’s well-known essay, “Discourse Typology in Prose,” in Russian Poetics: Formalist and Structuralist Views (ed. Ladislav Matejka and Krystyna Pomovska; Cambridge, Mass.: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press 1971), 176–97 (185).

50. Evidence of its importance as a symbol of an unseen, unparalleled and infinite Deity is found in the Judaic practice of reading Adonay, or “my lord” instead of Yahweh in order to sanctify the name. Yawe from LXX of Theodoret and Epiphanius, –yahu (i.e. Eliyahu) and yeho- (i.e. Jehoshaphat) of compound theophoric names and the contracted form yah all favor a first closed syllable with patah. Galatinus introduced the pronunciation Jehovah in 1520 without regard for MT vocalization and Le Merecier, J. Drusius, and L. Capellus argued for grammatical and historical propriety. Traditionally lexicons, see Buxdorf (91), Davidson (300), Gesenius (336), Mandelkern (323), and BDB (218), list it as a derivative of hyh or hwh because hyh) in Exod 3:10–14 has continuously shaped efforts to locate the root of the word, resulting in theological definitions such as “self-existent, self-creative, eternal.” The school of thought on this context that parses it as a causative hiphil is represented by P. Haupt, “Der Name Jahwe,” OLZ 12 (1909): 211–14; W. F. Albright, “Contributitons to Biblical Archaeology and Philology: The Name Yahweh,” JBL 43 (1924): 370–78; idem, review of B. N.
