The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the Lord.
1

The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the Lord.

2

And Hamath also shall border thereby; Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.

3

And Tyrus did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

Counter-Arguments

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

Land Sabbath / Rest for the Earth

The verse speaks of a "rest" for Damascus and a future orientation of human "eyes" toward the Lord, but it contains no direct or indirect mention of agricultural cycles, fallow fields, or any other aspect related to the physical land resting. The "rest" in this context appears to be a state of cessation or settlement rather than an ecological or agricultural practice.
