The Lord proceeded to condemn21 (seven times three, a full measure) other personal decorations that evidenced pride, many of which were popular in Isaiah"s day and some of which are still popular now. Many of these items originated in cult and in magic rituals. [1] Again, these things are not wrong in themselves, but they may assume too much importance in a person"s life. [source][source][source]
"It was the prophet"s intention to produce a ludicrous, but yet serious impression, as to the immeasurable luxury which really existed; and in the prophetic address, his design throughout is to bring out the glaring contrast between the titanic, massive, worldly glory, in all its varied forms, and that true, spiritual, and majestically simple glory, whose reality is manifested from within outwards. In fact, the theme of the whole address is the way of universal judgment leading on from the false glory to the true." [2][source]
