What does Isaiah 28:3 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Isaiah 28:3
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall
be
trodden under feet.
] Not only cast down with the hand, but trampled upon with the
feet; showing their utter destruction, and the contempt with
which they should be used; which, with their character, is
repeated, to point out their sins, the cause of it, to denote the
certainty of it, and that it might be taken notice of.
