Isaiah 4:1
Douay-Rheims
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, take away our reproach.
Ibn Ezra
Seven. That is, many; seven is used in this sense because it is the number of the days of the week. All this (that is mentioned in this verse) will happen in consequence of the death of the male persons in battle.
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
