In a very colorful way, Isaiah depicts the humiliation of those who prefer high-sounding philosophy to the knowledge of God. One acknowledging God as His own humble servant admires and magnifies Him in seeking to show forth His virtues, as we're exhorted by the Letter (epistle) of Saint Peter Chapter One.
This esaic prophecy can help a person who loves his or her own life too much to forsake pride, to colorfully imagine what it might be like to have to relinquish such pride involuntarily in being humbled.
The conclusion to and summation of this chapter also liberate us from oppression of man (to feeling oppressed in servitude to our fellow-man's opinion).
