וְהֶחֱזִיקוּ֩ שֶׁ֨בַע נָשִׁ֜ים בְּאִ֣ישׁ אֶחָ֗ד בַּיּ֤וֹם הַהוּא֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר לַחְמֵ֣נוּ נֹאכֵ֔ל וְשִׂמְלָתֵ֖נוּ נִלְבָּ֑שׁ רַ֗ק יִקָּרֵ֤א שִׁמְךָ֙ עָלֵ֔ינוּ אֱסֹ֖ף חֶרְפָּתֵֽנוּ׃ (ס)
Sete mulheres naquele dia lançarão mão dum só homem, dizendo: Nós comeremos do nosso pão, e nos vestiremos de nossos vestidos; tão somente queremos ser chamadas pelo teu nome; tira o nosso opróbrio.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
Seven. That is, many; seven is used in this sense because it is the number of the days of the week.1Because the days are only counted to seven, this number is the highest of a series of numbers, and it has often been used to express the idea of a great quantity. All this (that is mentioned in this verse) will happen in consequence of the death of the male persons in battle.

Rashi on Isaiah
take away Heb. אסף [lit., gather in,] hide our reproach, similar to (Deut. 22:2): “And you shall gather it (ואספתו) into your house.” For the woman, when she is married, will not be dealt with licentiously. According to Midrash Aggadah, (Lamentations Rabbah 5:11) Nebuchadnezzar commanded (or decreed upon) [his armies] not to have relations with married women, lest they be punished. They, therefore, begged to be nominally married.
