Initially chapter 2 focuses on the mountain of the Lord to which all nations will stream. "The law will go out from Zion and the Lord will judge between the nations... and they will beat their swords into ploughshares... Come, O house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the Lord."
Then God says, through Isaiah the prophet, that the day of the Lord will come to humble the lofty. He will condemn the superstitions, divinations and idols... the arrogance of man will be brought low on the day of the Lord... the idols will disappear and only the Lord will be exalted... men will flee to the rocks and hide in holes... and men will throw their idols to rodents and bats... stop trusting in man!
