Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Isaiah 5:23

VII. WOE TO CROOKED JUDGES"(Woe to them) that justify the wicked for a bribe, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him."The first three words of this verse are not in the text but are most certainly understood. Thus there are seven of these woes pronounced upon apostate Israel. Even the judiciary of wicked Israel had become corrupt; their judges had become evening wolves (Zephaniah 3:3). There could be but one answer to the problem of such a wicked society; and that answer was... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 5:22-23

Isaiah 5:22-23. Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine— This troop of vices is closed by drunkenness, joined with injustice and iniquity in judgment. This crime is distinct from that luxury and intemperance in feasts, which is attended with inconsideration of the works of God; Isaiah 5:11-12. It is no wonder if men of this kind, whose reason and understanding are drowned in wine, pervert judgment, and are greedy of the mammon of unrighteousness to satisfy their lusts and appetites. read more

2. The wildness of the grapes 5:8-25Yahweh’s crop was worthless because it produced wild grapes that manifested six blights. The word "woe" (Heb. hoy), a term of lament and threat, introduces each one (cf. Amos 5:18; Amos 6:1; Revelation 8:13; Revelation 9:12)."The word ’woe’ itself, appearing six times in the passage, does not just denounce our sins, it laments our sins. The same word is translated ’Ah!’ in Isaiah 1:4 and ’Alas!’ in 1 Kings 13:30. Remember that ’woe’ is the opposite of the... read more

Sins of the cynically unbelieving 5:18-25Isaiah proceeded to expose the attitude that resulted in the people not allowing their knowledge of God to affect the way they lived (cf. Isaiah 5:13). They thought that God would not act and that they knew what was better for themselves than He did. The prophet identified more "sour grapes" that issued from these attitudes. read more

Sixth, they had adopted corrupt values. They glorified the "macho man" who did things that appeared great but were nothing more than sophisticated childishness. The more a person could drink, the greater the people honored him. They thought it "smart" to profit from the misfortune of others, even though that ran counter to God’s will. Corrupt judges could do this easily (cf. Proverbs 17:15)."There is a reason why people binge on escapism. They are medicating their despair." [Note: Ortlund, p.... read more
