Isaiah does some foretelling about the church, which is really fun for all of us, but then he gives some foretelling to Judah/Jerusalem. The statement, “Let the punishment fit the crime” is a well known quote in many circles, and what it ultimately refers to is an old testament principle known as retribution theology. Or in other words, we get what we sow. Which is exactly what was about to happen to Judah, they were about to get what they had sown. But before it began, GOD wanted to make sure everyone knew why.
