Haydock's commentary
Burden. That is, a prophecy against Babylon. (Challoner)
Nimrod began the kingdom, Genesis x. Belus and Ninus brought it to great eminence. But after 1240 years, Babylon was taken by Cyrus. (Worthington)
Isaias delivered the seven following chapters in the first year of Ezechias, chap. xiv. 28.
