From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

In that day -The time of calamity referred to in the close of the previous chapter. This is a continuation of that prophecy, and there was no reason why these six verses should have been made a separate chapter. That the passage refers to the Messiah, is apparent from what has been stated in the note at the commencement of the prophecyIsaiah 2:1-4, and from the expressions which occur in the chapter itself; see the notes atIsaiah 4:2,Isaiah 4:5-6. Seven women -The number “seven” is used often to denote a “large” though “indefinite” number;Leviticus 26:28;Proverbs 24:16;Zechariah 3:9.
