Isaiah 26:20 (KJV)
Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
The context of this verse is the resurrection of the just.
Isaiah 26:19-21 (KJV)
Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
With that as the context then, the “chambers” is the grave. The “shut doors” is death and the burial. And the purpose of it is an escape from the indignation, the tribulation that will try the earth.
The devil means death as a judgment. God uses it as a means of eternal victory.
After death the resurrection. After resurrection eternal life.
