Isa. 50:1 reads: "This is what the LORD says: 'Where is your mother's certificate of divorce with which I sent her away? Or to which of my creditors did I sell you? Because of your sins you were sold; because of your transgressions your mother was sent away."
Is this saying that God divorced Zion/Israel? The first part sounds like a rheotrical question, as if the answer is no. But the second half suggests that she has been "sent away." Does that mean divorce, or does it just mean sent away for a time?
