[ Read](/kjv/isaiah/4)[ Commentary](/study/isaiah/4)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/isaiah/4) Audio

 1 And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.**

 2 In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth *shall be* excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.**

 3 And it shall come to pass, *that he that is* left in Zion, and *he that* remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, *even* every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:*

 4 When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

 5 And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory *shall be* a defence.**

 6 And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain.
 
[Isaiah 3](/study/isaiah/3) [Isaiah 5](/study/isaiah/5)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
** 

[Isa 4:1](/kjv/isa/4/1) *And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.* 

Ver. 1. **And in that day,** ] *sc.,* That day of desolation.[Isa 3:26](/kjv/-isa/3/26) 

**** 

**Seven women,** ] *i.e.,* Many women. See the like [Zechariah 8:23](/kjv/zechariah/8/23) . The women had been grievously threatened,[Isa 3:16-24](/kjv/-isa/3/16-24) the men also for their sakes,[Isa 3:25-26](/kjv/-isa/3/25-26) and yet the prophet hath not done with them. So heinous is sin in either sex. 

**** 

**Shall take hold of one man.** ] Who themselves were wont to be sued unto by many men; and perhaps were not content with their own husbands when they had them alive, but were sick of a pleurisy. 

**** 

**We will eat our own bread, &c.** ] Whereas the husband giveth to his wife food, raiment, and due benevolence: these would crave the last only, which yet they could not do neither in this sort but by laying aside woman-like modesty. 

**** 

**Only let us be called by thy name.** ] As wives used to be by their husbands’ names, both among the Jews and other nations, as Mary Cleophas, Mary Zebedee, &c. Solomon’s wife was after his name called Shulamite;[Son 6:13](/kjv/-son/6/13) and the Roman ladies were wont to say to their husbands, *Ubi tu Caius, ibi ego Caia.* Where you are Gaius there I am Gaia. 

**** 

**To take away our reproach.** ] Of want of husbands and children.[See Psa 78:63](/kjv/-see-psa/78/63)[Jdg 11:36-37](/kjv/-jdg/11/36-37) [Jeremiah 30:17](/kjv/jeremiah/30/17) .
