Isaiah 6:12-13
6:13 a Even if a tenth—a remnant—survive, the judgment would continue until nearly all were destroyed. The prophet often spoke of near extermination or decimation (9:18-21 b; 10:20 c; 22:4 d; 48:19 e; 51:18 f) but maintained the hope of a remnant who would make a new beginning (7:21-22 g; 29:23 h; 37:31 i; 44:26 j; 49:19 k; 54:1 l).• Israel’s stump will be a holy seed: The stump represents a remnant of holy people (see 4:2-3 m) whose new leader would be pleasing to the Lord (11:1 n).
