Isaiah 15-16 - Judgment on Moab

Notes

So far the word of God came for Babylon, Assyria, and Philistia. Tonight we see that it came for Moab as well. But we must remember that although this is a word from God against Moab, it is a word from God for his people in Judah.

v. 1 - Surely in a night

v. 5 - Surely on the road to Horonaim

v. 6 - Surely the grass is withered

v. 9 - Surely I will bring added woes
