Isaiah 18 and the Future of AmericaThere are Four Countries Not One
The First Country
The Second Country The "land shadowing with wings" or whirring wings is not the focal point of this chapter. It is an un-named nation "which is beyond the rivers of Cush". In this chapter the second country is not the focus of the destruction. Instead, it is a nation that sends its ambassadors, messengers or agents to the fourth country mentioned in verse two. The Third Country Readers find the mention of "Ethiopia" in verse 1 and assume that the passage is about it. The passage is not about "Ethiopia". The real name here is Cush. The real identity of Cush does not change the reference to the fourth country later in the chapter. Cush is a nation that helps identify another nation that is the "land shadowing with wings" which is beyond the rivers of Cush from the perspective of the people of Israel. Cush is merely a reference point for us to find the second nation. What Do These References Mean? Israel is implied in verse one but the identity of the fourth country cannot be determined by its relationship to Israel. There is debate about who Cush really is but the relationship between Cush and the fourth country is not given. Cush does not change the identity of the fourth country. Likewise, the second country has a relationship to Cush but not to the fourth country. The fourth country cannot be identified by Cush. It cannot be identified by the land of whirring wings .
