The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 28:22

Be ye not mockers . As they had shown themselves previously ( Isaiah 28:9 , Isaiah 28:10 ). Lest your bands be made strong ; or, lest your fetters grow strong . The prophet views Judah as still, to some extent, an Assyrian dependency, held in light bonds; and warns his countrymen that an attempt to break the light bonds may result in Assyria's making them stronger and heavier. A consumption … determined upon the whole earth ; rather, a consummation (comp. Isaiah 10:22 , ... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 28:21

For the Lord shall rise up - To rise up is indicative of going forth to judgment, as when one rises from his seat to accomplish anything.As in mount Perazim - There is reference here, doubtless, to the event recorded in 2 Samuel 5:20-21, and 1 Chronicles 14:11, where David is said to have defeated the Philistines at Baal-Perazim. This place was near to the valley of Rephaim 2 Samuel 5:19, and not far from Jerusalem. The word ‘Perazim’ is from פרץ pârats, to tear, or break forth, as waters do... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 28:22

Now therefore - In view of the certain judgment which God will bring upon you.Be ye not mockers - This was the prevailing sin Isaiah 28:9-14, and on account of this sin in part the judgment of God was about to come upon the guilty nation.Lest your bands be made strong - Lest your confinement should be more severe and protracted. God would punish them according to their sins, and if they now ceased to mock and deride him it would greatly mitigate the severity of their punishment (compare Isaiah... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 28:20-21

Isaiah 28:20-21. For the bed is shorter, &c. For those lying refuges, to which you trust, will not be able to give you that protection which you expect from them, no more than a man can stretch himself upon a bed that is too short for him. For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim Where he fought against the Philistines, 2 Samuel 5:20. He shall be wroth as in Gibeon Where he fought against the Canaanites, (Joshua 10:10, &c.,) and afterward against the Philistines, 1... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 28:22

Isaiah 28:22. Now therefore be not mockers For your own sakes do not make a mock of God’s word and threatenings, as you use to do. Lest your bands be made strong Lest thereby you make the judgments of God, which are often compared to bands, more sure and unavoidable, and more severe and terrible, as bands are when they are tied faster and more strongly upon a prisoner. For I have heard from the Lord a consumption, &c. God hath assured me that he will utterly root out the people of... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 28:1-29

28:1-33:24 HEZEKIAH AND THE ASSYRIANSBefore reading Chapters 28-33, readers should be familiar with the historical background found in the introduction under the heading ‘Judah’s new policies under Hezekiah’. Hezekiah reversed the policies of his father Ahaz. Whereas Ahaz sought help from Assyria to oppose Israel and Syria, Hezekiah sought help from Egypt to oppose Assyria. Isaiah opposed both policies alike. Faith in God, not reliance on foreign powers, is Judah’s only hope for survival. The... read more

Perazim. Gibeon. This could not be known or understood without reference to 2 Samuel 5:20 , and Joshua 10:10 ; and this reference must have been in writing: too long before (700 years) to be a matter of mere memory.

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 28:17-22

Isaiah 28:17-22. Judgment also will I lay to the line— The prophet, having provided for the safety of those who put their trust in God, prepares himself to denounce the judgments ready for the profane and hypocritical scorners of Jerusalem, who boasted that they had made a covenant with death and with hell, renouncing all hope of salvation from God; and the denunciation of this judgment is comprehended in various articles, the first whereof is in the 17th verse, wherein God testifies that he... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 28:21

21. Perazim—In the valley of Rephaim (2 Samuel 5:18; 2 Samuel 5:20; 1 Chronicles 14:11), there Jehovah, by David, broke forth as waters do, and made a breach among the Philistines, David's enemies, as Perazim means, expressing a sudden and complete overthrow. Gibeon— (1 Chronicles 14:16; 2 Samuel 5:25, Margin); not Joshua's victory (Joshua 10:10). strange—as being against His own people; judgment is not what God delights in; it is, though necessary, yet strange to Him (Joshua 10:10- :).... read more
