イザヤ書 32:10-12 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:11

Tremble … be troubled . The repetition of this verse is, as usual, emphatic. Its object is to impress those whom the prophet is addressing with the certainty of the coming judgment. Strip you, and make you bare ; i.e. "bare your breasts," in preparation for the beating which is to follow (see the comment on the next verse). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:11

Folk who are at ease. Special reference is made to the women of the upper classes in Jerusalem, who were living in self-indulgence and extravagance, and setting mischievous example to all the women of the land. The coming woes would affect them all the more seriously because of the luxuries which they had gathered round themselves, and which had become to them fancied necessities. No doubt the idle, self-indulgent, and too often profligate conduct of these women greatly added to the pressure... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament for the teats , etc.; rather, they shall beat upon the breasts for the pleasant fields , etc . (so the LXX ; the Vulgate, Jarchi, Gesenius, Ewald, Maurer, Knobel, Delitzsch, and Mr. Cheyne). Dr. Kay prefers the rendering of the Authorized Version, understanding by "the teats" such "dry breasts" as Hosea speaks of ( Hosea 9:14 ). But nothing has been said in this place of any such affliction. For the pleasant fields , etc.; i.e. for their loss (see verse 10). read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:10

Many days and years - Margin, ‘Days above a year.’ This is a literal translation of the Hebrew. Septuagint, ‘Make mention of a day of a year in sorrow, with hope.’ Targum, ‘Days with years.’ Kimchi supposes it means ‘two years.’ Grotius supposes it means ‘within three years.’ Various other interpretations may be seen in Poole’s Synopsis. Gesenius renders it, ‘For a year’s time,’ according to the common expression ‘a year and a day,’ denoting a complete year, and supposes that it means a... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:12

They shall lament for the teats - Interpreters have been not a little perplexed by this expression. Lowth supposes it is to be taken in connection with the previous verse, and that it denotes that sackcloth was to be girded upon the breast as well as upon the loins. Others have supposed that it denotes to ‘smite upon the breasts,’ as a token of grief; others, that the word ‘breast’ here denotes children by a synecdoche, as having been nourished by the breast, and that the women here were called... read more

Isaiah 32:9-12. Rise up, &c.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 32:1-20

A kingdom of righteousness (32:1-20)Looking beyond the victory over the Assyrians, Isaiah sees the day when the people of God are under the rule of an ideal government. At the head of this government is a king whose chief officials share his characteristics of integrity, justice and mercy. Together they give their people protection and contentment (32:1-2).In such a kingdom the people as a whole reflect in their lives the qualities of their rulers. They have a desire to know more of God and his... read more

Isaiah 32:9-10. Rise up, ye women— The prophet, to shew the sinners and hypocrites in Zion, (ch. Isaiah 33:14.) that they must not build any false hopes of blessings from God, such as he had just now predicted, while in their state of impenitence,—denounces against them the calamities which, first by the Assyrian, Isa 32:9-10 and then by the Babylonish destruction, Isa 32:11-14 should come upon them.
