That is interesting that you say Kings was written after Isaiah , how do you
know that , and do we know who wrote Genisis , oh and I just thought with is
5 and songs , by the same melodything , it seems to me to be written in
similar style , say as when we hear a beatles song , or Abba , you can tell
that they have an indiviual style , this seems something like that, anyway
thanks , doug belot

Dear Doug,
I'm not sure what you mean by "corporate" here, but "D. of Z." is
obviously
a poetic term, used by prophets from the 8th century BCE onwards. Isaiah,
of
course, did not copy from Kings since he lived before Kings was written.
Either the author of Kings chose to copy parts of Isaiah, or a late
redactor
of the Book of Isaiah chose to copy these passages from Kings.
I'm not sure what you mean by Is 5:1-7 having "a melody in its prose
similar
to Songs of Solomon". Some of the imagery is similar, but the two are
actually quite different.

Yigal it seems as tho the term d of z only comes into the Scriptures
after
2nd kgs 19:21 ,it does to me suggest a "youger generation" of Israelites
,
hence maybe the using terminolgy of "mother" and children , and d of z ,
I
am believing that here the term "Zion" is referring to corporate Israel ,
as
say in Is 49:14.and her daughters are the coming generations , which
would
make present day Jews corporate the "daughters of Zion" , it is used in
the
prophecies many many times .
Do you have any ideas on why Isaiah put 2nd kings 18:13-2nd kgs 19 as
chapters 36-37 in Isaiah , is there a litteral and non literal message
here
.
Plus , and this is a bit of a reach , but Is 5:1-7 seems to have a melody
in
its prose similar to Songs of Solomon , and is talking about "my Well
beloved" , similar to the Songs plea , say 2;16.
Ok thanks Yigal

Hello again Doug,
I think that the conventional reading of "daughter of Zion" is that it
always refers to either the city of Jerusalem, or to the
land/people/kingdom
of Judah as a whole. "Zion", as I'm sure you know, is a name for the
hill
on
which Jerusalem was built, the hill that we also call "Moriah" or "The
Temple Mount" (the use of "Zion" specifically for the western hill of
the
Old City that is common now is a Second Temple Period
misidentification).
I can't think off-hand of any case in which "daughter of Zion" refers to
"Israel" as a whole.

Hi to all Hebrew scholars ,may I ask this question...
In 2nd Kgs 19:21 we see a reply from the LORD , to Sennacherib this way
2nd Kgs 19:21 The daughter of Zion has despised you , the daughter of
Jerusalem has shaken her head at you behind your back.
This verse is repeated in Is 37:22 , also we find the term "daughter of
Zion" used in many places , most obvious is Is 1:8 , Is 52:2 and Is
62:11
would I be out of ordert o consider that this "daughter" is a corporate
term for Israel / Judah , after the Rehoboam/Jeroboam split .
And could I thus be able to say that all such terminology was meant to
be
taken as corporate Israel , or is it splitting Jerusalem and Israel .
And as the term comes direct from the Lord could I thus think that this
is
a term that he now regards Israel as, the daughter of Zion/Jerusalem
