“The rings, and nose jewels,”
Isaiah 3:21 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 3:21
Rings and nose jewels complete the enumeration of personal ornaments. The nose ring (Hebrew 'nezem ap') was common adornment in ancient Near East (Genesis 24:47). The exhaustive listing serves to heighten the contrast with coming deprivation (v. 24), where finery gives way to degradation. This pattern of reversal—abundance to want—characterizes covenant judgment and anticipates Jesus' teaching on the first becoming last (Matthew 19:30).
