A Portrait of Total Sin
Commentators explain that this verse contributes to a picture of total corruption. Having already mentioned sinful hands, lips, and tongues in previous verses, Isaiah now adds that their 'feet run to evil.' This illustrates how sin has permeated every part of the person, from their innermost thoughts to their outward actions.
