イザヤ書 11:9-10 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:9

The Christian golden year. Isaiah's relief, from the burdens, sins, and sorrows of his times, is his anticipation of the coming days of Messiah, which were to ancient Jews their "golden year." Isaiah's visions break in on his records of evil and prophetic denunciations, and lie like pools of blue in a cloudy sky, or stand like an oasis of palm-trees in a dreary desert. The general thought of this chapter is, that when righteousness can really and fully reign, then peace will be attained. As... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10

There shall he a root of Jesse . The "root" of this place is the same as the "rod" and "branch" of Isaiah 11:1 . The "rod" springs up out of a "root," and is inseparably connected with it. Which shall stand for an ensign of the people ; rather, of the peoples . The "rod" shall lift itself up, and become an ensign, seen from afar, and attracting to itself the attention of "the peoples" or "nations" generally. The Acts and Epistles show how speedily this prophecy was fulfilled. Greeks,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10

The rest of Christ. "And his rest shall be glorious." This chapter commences with the full Messianic strain. "There shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse;" and the music swells, in the Hebrew rhythm of thought, into a sublime prophecy of the reign of Christ. This "root of Jesse" is to be "an ensign of the people," and "to it shall the Gentiles seek." We are thus led to understand the words, "his rest," as applying to the triumph of the Savior. I. MANY IDEAS OR FORMS OF... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10

The center of attraction for the whole world. "An ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek." In prophetic form we have here expressed the truth which Messiah himself expressed when he said, "And if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me." All humanity is figured as turning to look on the crucified One, and responding to an irresistible attraction which makes all gather round him, as armies gather about an ensign or standard, and as clans gather to the appointed meeting-place.... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10-12

God's mercy in bringing the Gentiles into his kingdom. In the old world, when "all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth," God sent forth a fierce destruction, and swept away the entire human race, excepting eight persons. After the Flood he promised, of his own free grace, that he would never so destroy mankind again ( Genesis 9:11-15 ). But it was open to him to have sent upon the world some other equally severe visitation, and to have once more rid the earth of "a seed of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10-13

THE JEWS AND GENTILES SHALL BE GATHERED TOGETHER INTO MESSIAH 'S KINGDOM . It is characteristic of "the evangelical prophet" that he dwells earnestly and frequently on the calling of the Gentiles (see Isaiah 2:2 ; Isaiah 19:22-25 ; Isaiah 25:6 ; Isaiah 27:13 , etc.). The prophecies to Abraham had repeatedly declared that "in him," or "in his seed," "all the families of the earth should be blessed" ( Genesis 12:3 ; Genesis 18:18 ; Genesis 22:18 ; Genesis... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:10-16

Judah and the nations. I. HONOR TO THE ROOT OF JUDAH . The scion from the ancient trunk will be honored far and wide among the heathen, because of those virtues already described in the preceding section. It will be a banner to which they will flock, a center of light and living oracles. II. REDEMPTION OF THE REMNANT . The mighty hand of Jehovah will be stretched forth to gather the scattered ones from all the four quarters of their dispersion. When the banner is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 11:9

They shall not hurt - That is, those who are designated above under the emblems of the lion, the leopard, the bear, and the adder.Nor destroy in all my holy mountain - Mount Zion; used here, as elsewhere, to denote the seat of his reign on the earth, or his church; the notes at Isaiah 1:8; Isaiah 2:4. The disposition of people, naturally ferocious and cruel, shall be changed so entirely, that the causes of strife and contention shall cease. They shall be disposed to do justice, and to promote... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 11:10

And in that day - That future time when the reign of the Messiah shall be established; Note, Isaiah 3:2; Isaiah 4:1. The prophet, having described the birth, and the personal characteristics of the great personage to whom he referred, together with the peaceful effects of his reign, proceeds to state the result of that reign in some other respects. The first is Isaiah 11:10, that the “Gentiles” would be brought under his reign; the second Isaiah 11:14, that it would be attended with the... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 11:9

Isaiah 11:9. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain Here the prophet himself gives us a key wherewith to open his meaning in the three preceding verses. By the holy mountain he means, the Christian Church, frequently termed Zion, Jerusalem, and God’s holy mountain, in the writings of the prophets. Wherever the gospel comes and prevails; wherever the true and genuine religion of Christ takes place and is established, these effects are produced. And in due time the... read more
