Isaiah  2 Samuel

Isaiah 9:1-7 covers the Hiram Builds David a House, David Has More Kids, The Philistines Defeated, Michal's Barrenness, and The Davidic Covenant stories in the book of 2 Samuel.

FE ¹The land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali have rejoiced, the mighty dominion, the way by the sea, the passing of the Jordan River, the Galilee of the peoples. ²The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light and those who lived in the land of the shadow of death light has risen on them. S Luke 1:79 P Matthew 4:15-16 Isaiah 9:1-2³You have multiplied the people and you have increased its joy. A Judges 8:30 They have joy before you as those who have joy in the harvest and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil. A Judges 8:24 ⁴For you have broken the yoke of their burden and the staff of their shoulder and the rod of his oppressor as in the days of Midian. A Judges 8:28 Isaiah 9:3-4⁵For every voice which is heard brings terror A Judges 9:2 and garments rolled in blood, A Judges 9:5 but this will be for burning and fuel for fire. A Judges 9:20 ⁶For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and his dominion was on his shoulder and his name was called, 1|6 The wonder, 2|6 and the king, 3|6 god, 4|6 the mighty man of the world, 5|6 the prince of peace, 6|6 and the father of the world. ⁷Of the increase of his government and of peace there will not be an end on the throne of David and on his kingdom to establish it and to sustain it with justice and with righteousness from that time and forever. I 2 Samuel 7:12-13 The zeal of the Master of hosts will perform this. Isaiah 9:5-7 (Isaiah 9:1-7 BRB)

Isaiah says The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali have rejoiced; the mighty dominion, the way by the sea, the country beyond the Jordan River, and Galilee of the Gentiles, have rejoiced. This aligns with Hiram, the king of Tyre, who sent cedar logs by sea to build a house for David (2 Sam 5:11-12).

Isaiah says You have multiplied the people. This aligns with David having more children in Jerusalem (2 Sam 5:13-15).

Isaiah says you have broken the yoke of his burden and the staff of his shoulder and the rod of his oppressor. This aligns with David defeating the Philistines (2 Sam 5:17-25).

Isaiah says every voice which is heard brings terror and garments rolled in blood. This likely aligns with the barrenness of Michal, a story nestled inside the story of David bringing the ark to Zion (2 Sam 6:1-23).

Isaiah says Of the increase of his government and of his peace there will not be an end, on the throne of David and on his kingdom, to establish it and to sustain it with justice and with righteousness from now on, even forever. This aligns with the covenant of a perpetual kingdom promised David (2 Sam 7:1-16).
