The Hebrew word for "boot" (נַעַל, na'al) signifies the footwear of soldiers, symbolizing the relentless march of armies. Historically, the Assyrian and Babylonian empires were known for their military campaigns, often trampling over nations. The "trampling" suggests the oppressive nature of these conquests. In a spiritual sense, this phrase can be seen as a metaphor for the struggles and battles faced by believers, with the promise of ultimate peace through divine intervention.<p><b>and every garment rolled in blood</b><br />The "garment rolled in blood" is a vivid depiction of the aftermath of battle, where soldiers' clothing would be soaked in the blood of conflict. The Hebrew word for "garment" (שִׂמְלָה, simlah) refers to outer clothing, often used in the context of mourning or destruction. This imagery underscores the brutality and cost of war. From a scriptural perspective, it highlights the consequences of sin and rebellion against God, which often lead to violence and bloodshed. Yet, it also points to the hope of redemption and cleansing, as blood in the Bible also signifies atonement and sacrifice.<p><b>will be burned as fuel for the fire</b><br />The act of burning these items symbolizes the end of war and the ushering in of peace. In ancient times, burning the spoils of war was a way to purify and remove the remnants of conflict. The Hebrew word for "burned" (שָׂרַף, saraph) indicates a complete consumption by fire, suggesting a total eradication of the instruments of war. This phrase prophetically points to a future where God will establish His kingdom of peace, as seen in the messianic hope throughout Isaiah. For believers, it serves as a reminder of the ultimate victory over sin and death through Christ, who brings eternal peace and reconciliation.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/isaiah/9.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(5) <span class= "bld">For every battle of the warrior . . .</span>--Here again the whole verse requires re-translating: <span class= "ital">"Every boot of the warrior that tramps noisily, and the cloak rolled in blood, are </span>(<span class= "ital">i.e., </span>shall be) <span class= "ital">for burning, </span>(<span class= "ital">as</span>)<span class= "ital"> fuel for fire. </span>The picture of the conquerors collecting the spoil is continued from <a href="/isaiah/9-3.htm" title="You have multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before you according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.">Isaiah 9:3</a>.
