to be thrust into a corner, hidden away
This verb, occurring only in the Niphal, means to be cornered, thrust aside, or hidden. Isaiah 30:20 promises that though God gives the people the bread of adversity and water of affliction, their teachers will no longer be hidden or thrust into a corner. The image is of teachers who had been marginalized, pushed aside, made unavailable—but God promises their return to public ministry. Some interpreters understand it as 'hide themselves,' but the passive sense of being forced into obscurity seems more likely. The root may relate to 'wing' or 'edge,' suggesting being pushed to the margins.

1. sense 1 — A Niphal verb meaning to be thrust into a corner or hidden away, used of teachers being removed from public view. The Spanish 'se esconderá' (will hide himself) takes the middle/reflexive sense, while the context in Isaiah promises reversal—teachers previously marginalized will again be visible. The passive nuance suggests forced removal rather than voluntary hiding—these teachers were silenced or exiled, but restoration will bring them back into the open. This fits Isaiah's broader message of coming deliverance and renewal. 1×
