📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Isaiah, chapter 22, the prophet is addressing the people of Jerusalem during a time of imminent threat from the Assyrian empire under King Sennacherib around 701 BC. The leaders were counting the houses and tearing them down to use the materials for strengthening the city walls as a desperate defense measure. This reflects a broader biblical narrative where God rebukes Judah for relying on human strategies rather than turning to Him in faith.
