Isaiah 4:2

In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.
1

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, to take away our reproach.

2

In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.

3

And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:

4

When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Literal Fulfillment

While the verse uses concrete terms like "branch" and "fruit," these are common biblical metaphors for lineage, prosperity, and blessing, which could be interpreted spiritually or symbolically rather than strictly literally.

Time-Bound Fulfillment

The verse speaks of a future "day" but does not specify a duration or provide any details that would allow for the recognition of a defined fulfillment period. The "day" could refer to an indefinite future time rather than a specific, measurable period.
