Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 41:5-7

Isaiah 41:5-7. The isles saw it, &c.— Bishop Lowth renders the 7th verse, The carver encouraged the smith; he that smootheth with the hammer, him that smiteth on the anvil; saying of the solder, it is good: and he fixeth the idol with nails, that it shall not move. We have here the consequence of raising up this illustrious prince, namely, the vain and fruitless attempt of idolaters to hinder the effects of his appearance,—the demolition of Babylon and its idols, which the prophet describes... read more

God’s promises to His servants 41:1-42:9The intent of this unit of material was to assure Israel that God had both the power and the desire to deliver her and to bring salvation to the whole world. It contains three basic themes: the pagans’ inability to refute Yahweh’s sovereignty, the promise to deliver fearful Israel, and the divine plan to use an ideal servant as redeemer. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 41:1-20

The fearful servant, Israel 41:1-20The Lord, through His prophet, assured fearful Israel in this segment. Israel need not fear the nations (Isaiah 41:1-7) because Yahweh remained committed to His people and would use them to accomplish His purposes in the world (Isaiah 41:8-20). This expression of God’s grace would have encouraged and motivated the Israelites to serve their Lord.The courtroom setting pictured in Isaiah 41:1-7 enabled Isaiah to make God’s transcendent monotheism clear and... read more

2. The servant of the Lord 41:1-44:22There is an emphasis on the uniqueness of the Lord compared to other gods in this section, a theme that Isaiah introduced earlier (ch. 40 especially). The prophet particularly stressed Yahweh’s ability to control history in this connection. He did this to assure Israel that God loved her and had a future for her beyond the Exile, specifically to serve Him by demonstrating to the world that He is sovereign over history. These emphases become increasingly... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Isaiah 41:1-29

The Antidote to Fear Isaiah 41:10 Fear is common to man; increased by, if it does not originate in, a consciousness of sin. The text indicates three reasons why the Christian should not be afraid. I. God's Presence. 'I am with thee.' Powerful, wise, and loving. II. God's Relationship. 'I am thy God.' These words imply on our part reverence, obedience, and submission; on His part guardianship and blessing. We naturally take special care of that which is our own. III. God's Promise. 1. 'I... read more
