以賽亞書 2:10-11 RCUVTS

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:11

The effect of the judgment which, in Isaiah 2:9 , was said to be the humiliation of high and low alike, is here declared with special reference to the high-minded and proud, whom it will humble more than others. The Lord alone shall be exalted; like a lofty and strong tower (comp. Isaiah 12:4 ; Isaiah 33:5 ). read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 2:10

Enter into the rock - That is, into the “holes or caverns” in the rocks, as a place of refuge and safety; compare Isaiah 2:19, and Revelation 6:15-16. In times of invasion by an enemy, it was natural to flee to the fastnesses or to the caverns of rocks for refuge. This expression is highly figurative and poetic. The prophet warns them to flee from danger. The sense is, that such were their crimes that they would certainly be punished; and he advises them to flee to a place of safety.And hide... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 2:11

The lofty looks - Hebrew ‘The eyes of pride,’ that is, the proud eyes or looks. Pride commonly evinces itself in a lofty carriage and supercilious aspect; Psalms 18:27.Shall be humbled - By the calamities that shall sweep over the land. This does not mean that he shall be brought “to be” humble, or to have a humble heart, but that that on which he so much prided himself would be taken away.The Lord alone ... - God will so deal with them as to vindicate his honor; to turn the attention entirely... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 2:10-11

Isaiah 2:10-11. Enter into the rock, &c. Such calamities are coming upon you, that you will be ready to hide yourselves in rocks and caves of the earth, for fear of the glorious and terrible judgments of God. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled The eyes that looked high; the countenance, in which the pride of the heart had showed itself, shall be cast down in shame and despair. The haughtiness of men shall be bowed down Judicially, as they prostrated themselves before their idols... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 2:1-22

Jerusalem as it should be and as it is (2:1-22)God’s people always looked for the day when Jerusalem would be the religious centre of the world, where people of all nations would go to be taught the ways of God. In that day there would be no more war, but contentment and prosperity (2:1-4). (A note on the new Jerusalem is included in the introduction to Chapters 40-66, where the subject of Jerusalem’s future glory is considered more fully.) Such hope for the future is all the more reason why... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 2:10

Isaiah 2:10. Enter into the rock— The prophet's discourse is here most sublime, in order to fill the mind with the highest ideas of the divine judgment impending. We have a preface concerning the greatness of this judgment, Isaiah 2:10-11 a more clear exposition of it with respect to the subjects to be humbled by God, with the consequences of it; Isa 2:12-21 and an admonition is subjoined at the end, Isaiah 2:22. The preface is figurative; and its aim is, to teach, that in the revelation of... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 2:10

10. Poetical form of expressing that, such were their sins, they would be obliged by God's judgments to seek a hiding-place from His wrath (Revelation 6:15; Revelation 6:16). dust—equivalent to "caves of the earth," or dust (Revelation 6:16- :). for fear, &c.—literally, "from the face of the terror of the Lord." read more
