Isa. viii. 3. [Chrysostom does not use the Hebrew name here, but simply repeats a part of the Greek phrase used to translate “Maher-shalal-hash-baz” in the LXX., which he had already given in the previous sentence: Ταχω σκλευσον, ξω προνμευσον. The R.V. in loco does not accept the imperative rendering, but gives this marginal explanation: “That is, The spoil speedeth, the prey hasteth.”—R.]
