Hut
Holman Bible Dictionary
Modern translations' rendering for a lean-to or temporary shelter; shack (Isaiah 1:8; Isaiah 24:20 ). The image of Isaiah 1:8 stresses the isolation of Jerusalem, the sole survivor of the cities of Judah ( Isaiah 1:7-9 ). Isaiah 24:20 illustrates God's power in judgment in the picture of the earth's swaying like an unstable hut before the Lord.
