Isaiah 17:7
"At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel."
"The exhortations of the prophet to Judah to behold the living God, and to accept His gracious offers, were not in vain. There were some who gave earnest heed, and who turned from their idols to the worship of Jehovah. They learned to see in their Maker love and mercy and tender compassion. And in the dark days that were to come in the history of Judah, when only a remnant were to be left in the land, the prophet's words were to continue bearing fruit in decided reformation. “At that day,” declared Isaiah, “shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel. And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.” Isaiah 17:7, 8 . PK 320.2"
EGW directly quotes Isaiah 17:7 and uses it in the context of turning to God and away from idols, which is the same theme as the original verse.
