Isaiah 13:1

[Here begins the second major section of the book of Isaiah with prophetic words against the nations. Chapters 13-27 have a sevenfold symmetry. The opening words against Babylon (chapters 13-14) are echoed in the final section on the fall of Judah's enemy (chapters 24-27). The fall of Babylon is described in chapter 21.
A The fall of Babylon and the restoration of Judah (chapters 13-14)
B Judah's neighbor Moab (chapters 15-16)
C Egypt and Ethiopia (chapters 17-20)
D Center – The fall of Babylon (chapter 21)
C´ Jerusalem and Egypt (chapter 22)
B´ Judah's neighbor Tyre (chap. 23)
A´ The fall of the city (Babylon) and the restoration of Judah (chaps. 24-27)]

Message (prophecy, this burden) concerning Babylon, which was revealed to Isaiah, son of Amoz.
[The Hebrew word massa is a common term in prophetic literature that introduces a message from God, see Mal. 1:1; Zech. 9:1; 12:1. The word comes from a verb meaning "to carry," which suggests that the message is also demanding and, to some extent, burdensome. It appears 15 times in Isaiah. Exactly how Isaiah "sees" this message is not stated; it may have been a vision, a dream, or an insight based on some event. It begins with the prelude to a great war:]
