  1. Apocalypse soon<\/em>. If you like end-of-the-world movies, tsunamis, volcanoes, plagues, this is the chapter for you. Or if you are worried about the end of the world today. In any event, there aren\u2019t any wars in the chapter.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Terror, pit, trap<\/em> (<\/span>pachad, pachat, pach)<\/span><\/i>. Among all the word- and sound-play that is part of this chapter, you\u2019ll find in verses 17-18, the closed circle of fate: \u201cTerror, and pit, and trap Upon you who dwell on earth! He who flees at the report of the terror (<\/span>pachad<\/span><\/i>) Shall fall into the pit (<\/span>pachat<\/span><\/i>); And he who climbs out of the pit Shall be caught in the trap (<\/span>pach<\/span><\/i>).\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Continuous movement<\/em>. The prophecy is filled with verbs, that vividly portray the hubbub and confusion, but also contrast with the feeling of impotence, that there is nothing that can be done.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Wherefore?<\/em> Why is the whole land collapsing? One little phrase, in verse 20 gives a hint: \u201cIts iniquity shall weigh it down, And it shall fall, to rise no more.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","image":{"ID":86314,"id":86314,"title":"Points
