After he died there was a lot of in fighting amongst his remaining generals, and during the time the city fell to ruins. It wasn't till Demertius III rebuilt the city renaming it demetrias that people began to live and work there again.. When the Romans came it was again conquered and rebuilt and incorporated it into a group of ten cities name decapolius. By that point Isaiah's Damascus was long gone.
That's not what your fucking bible says, though is it?
What it says is:
"“See, Damascus will no longer be a city
but will become a heap of ruins."
And as Damascus is the oldest continually occupied city in the world it looks like your bible is a fucking pile of bullshit....again.
