 I remember reading somewhere that Hebrew poetry uses repetition a lot, instead of rhyme (and maybe meter).  In [[Isaiah 2]], this is really evident.  The helpful part of this is that if you don't understand a phrase or sentence, the prophet always repeats himself, so you have a pair of analogies to use as similar sayings.  They are often finished by testimony or admonition. I remember reading somewhere that Hebrew poetry uses repetition a lot, instead of rhyme (and maybe meter).  In [[Isaiah 2]], this is really evident.  The helpful part of this is that if you don't understand a phrase or sentence, the prophet always repeats himself, so you have a pair of analogies to use as similar sayings.  They are often finished by testimony or admonition.
