This event is spoken about nearby -- at Isaiah 30:6-7. This passage describes the Judahites going down to Egypt for aid. It is again referenced in Isaiah 31:1-3 where God condemns these same travelers for their lack of trust in God. See Carol J. Dempsey, <em>Isaiah: God's Poet of Light</em> (Chalice Press, 2009) at <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=Yf-BVeN6TbIC&lpg=PA70&ots=CpvngQAit5&dq=isaiah%2028%20alliance%20egypt%20protect%20assyrians&pg=PA70#v=onepage&q=isaiah%2028%20alliance%20egypt%20protect%20assyrians&f=false">70</a>.</span></p>

Vowelz were not used in Hebrew texts at the time Isaiah was written, so it can be either Hebrew word. If you were to incorrectly overlay the historical events at the time, you might think this is about the people seeking an alliance with SHEOL. The grave. You might then think this is merely an allegorical name for Egypt. But is it? </span></p>

I think you can clearly see this is about Jesus and a prophesied opponent.</span></p>

The people falsely believe this covenant will protect them from "the whip when it passes through." This appears to be a reference to Jeremiah 30:23-24. That passage speaks about a whirl wind that passes through which represents the wrath of God on the wicked in the latter days.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"> </p>

<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times;">Then this passage says these people whose prophets and leaders are <strong>apostate</strong> against God's Law are at odds with what God describes as something He ALREADY LAID as a "chief cornerstone" in Zion. (<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+28&version=ESV" style="color: #517291; text-decoration: underline;">Isaiah 28</a>:16; see below.) "Behold I am the one<em><strong> who has LAID </strong></em>as a foundation in Zion....a precious cornerstone." </span></p>

Jesus quoted this passage from Isaiah 28, and applied it to himself. Hence, Jesus tells us Isaiah 28 was a prophecy about Himself.</span></p>

Listen with ears to hear to verses 14-18 -- with SAUL placed besides SHEOL as a legitimate alternative translation:</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px 30px; color: #494a44; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times;"><sup>14</sup> Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scoffers, <br />who rule this people in Jerusalem! <br /><sup>15</sup> Because you have said, “We have made<strong><em> </em>a covenant<em> </em></strong>with death, <br />and with <strong>SAUL</strong> / Sheol <strong>we have an agreement</strong>, <br />when the overwhelming whip passes through <br /><strong>it will not come to us</strong>, <br />for we have made <strong>lies our refuge</strong>, <br />and in <strong>falsehood</strong> we have taken shelter”; <br /><sup>16</sup> therefore thus says the Lord GOD, <br />“Behold, I am the<strong><em> </em>one who has laid</strong><strong><sup>[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+28&version=ESV#fen-ESV-18181c" style="color: #517291; text-decoration: underline;" title="See footnote c">c</a>]</sup> as a foundation </strong><strong>in Zion</strong>, <br />a stone, a tested stone, <br />a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: <br />‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’ <br /><sup>17</sup> And I will make justice the line, <br />and righteousness the plumb line; <br />and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, <br />and waters will overwhelm the shelter.” <br /><sup>18</sup> Then your covenant with death will be annulled, <br />and your agreement with <strong>SAUL</strong> / Sheol will not stand; <br />when<strong><em> </em>the overwhelming scourge passes through, </strong><strong><br /></strong><strong>you will be beaten down by it</strong>.</span></p>

God describes it as a covenant with Saul and death. The followers of Saul trust / take refuge in lies. God warns that Paulinists' agreement with Saul-Paul's lies will not protect them when the whip of the judgment of God passes through. </span></p>

They won't make hasty judgments that include Saul-Paul as a legitimate authority whose gospel of death can ever replace the true gospel of eternal life brought by the true Jesus. The hasty trust / take refuge in lies. The prudent and studious unravel the lies of Paulinism, and trust and follow the chief cornerstone laid in Jerusalem -- Yahshua, the Prophet.</span></p>
