48:8 Isaiah used the metaphor of birth to describe Israel’s rebellion against the Lord from its earliest days. His reference was to the complaining of the people soon after they left Egypt (Ex 15:24; 16:2; 17:2) and the sin of making the idolatrous golden calf at Mount Sinai (Ex 32). The prophet was not speaking of the Judeans as individuals, or suggesting that newborn infants can make moral choices.
