<p> (Heb. Shear' Yashub', שְׁאִר וָשׁוּב '' | <p> (Heb. Shear' Yashub', שְׁאִר וָשׁוּב ''A Remnant Shall Return'' ; Sept. ὁ καταλειφθεὶς Ι᾿ασούβ )'','' son of the prophet Isaiah, who accompanied his father when he proceeded: to deliver to king [[Ahaz]] the celebrated prophecy contained in Isaiah 7 (see Isaiah 7:3). B.C. cir. 735. As the sons of Isaiah sometimes stood for signs in [[Israel]] ( Isaiah 8:18), and the name of Maher-shalal-hash-baz was given to one of them by way of prophetic intimation, it has been conjectured that the somewhat remarkable name of Shear-jashub intimated that the people who had then retired within the walls of [[Jerusalem]] should return in peace to their fields and villages (comp. Isaiah 10:20-22). Fairbairn's theory that these events occurred only in visions (''On Prophecy,'' 1, 5, 2) is in violatioin of the plain import of the language. </p> | ||
