Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:1-17

Yahweh and Israel reunited (54:1-17)Israel is likened to the wife of Yahweh. Her exile in Babylon was like a period of divorce when God separated her from him because of her sins. During this time she did not increase or prosper as a nation. She is now to return to God and to her homeland, where she will produce greater increase than in the days before the captivity. As an Arab has to enlarge his tent to accommodate more children, so Israel will have to enlarge its borders to accommodate this... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 54:9-10

Isaiah 54:9-10. For this is as the waters of Noah— To confirm the promise above given, a beautiful emblem taken from the deluge is here set forth; for, as God then swore that the waters should no more cover the earth, to destroy the human race, in like manner he assures his church that no persecutions or afflictions should so come upon it in this world, as to overwhelm and utterly destroy it; which also he corroborates by a new emblem in the 10th verse, taken from the mountains and hills. The... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 54:1-10

The restored wife 54:1-10The prophet emphasized the gracious character of Yahweh as the source of restoration for His people. Returning to the metaphor of the Lord’s people as his wife (Isaiah 51:17-20), Isaiah presented the joyful prospect of reconciliation due to the Servant’s work. Significantly, the name "Zion," which has been prominent in Isaiah 49:14 to Isaiah 52:8, does not appear again until Isaiah 59:20. Zion is the personification of Israel. In the present passage, however, the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 54:10

Even the most substantial and immovable of things do not compare with the firmness of God’s promise. The Lord will again reshape the surface of the earth, as He did with the Flood, only the next time it will be with a great earthquake (cf. Revelation 16:17-21). Even global changes would not alter this promise to preserve His people in intimate relationship with Himself. This promise is so firm and formal that it constitutes a covenant, a covenant guaranteeing peace with them and for them (Heb.... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 54:10

(10) For the mountains shall depart.—Better, “may depart.” The same bold hyperbole is found in Psalms 46:3; Jeremiah 31:36; Matthew 24:35.The covenant of my peace.—The phrase is taken from Numbers 25:12, and re-appears in Ezekiel 34:25; Ezekiel 37:26. “Peace,” as elsewhere in the Old Testament, includes well-nigh all that is wrapped up in the “salvation” of the New. read more

Lengthening the Cords and Strengthening the Stakes ( A Sermon to Clergymen ) Isaiah 54:2 My subject is steadfastness and then extension. We have the same connexion of thought in that pair of parables which ought never to be separated the Parable of the Ten Virgins and the Parable of the Entrusted Talents the connexion between secret faith in the heart and the life of active obedience life in Christ and life for Christ. I shall consider the subject in two aspects: I. As to our individual... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 54:1-17

, Isaiah 55:1-13, Isaiah 56:1-8CHAPTER XXIION THE EVE OF RETURNIsaiah 54:1-17, Isaiah 55:1-13, Isaiah 56:1-8ONE of the difficult problems of our prophecy is the relation and grouping of chapters 54-59. It is among them that the unity of "Second Isaiah," which up to this point we have seen no reason to doubt, gives way. Isaiah 56:9-12 is evidently pre-exilic, and so is Isaiah 59:1-21. But in chapters 54, 55, and Isaiah 56:1-8 we have three addresses, evidently dating from the Eve of the Return.... read more

Jehovah keeps and defends His people (Isaiah 54:15-17 ) After the cross the singing. What singing there will be in the earth when at last “they will look upon Him, whom they have pierced.” Israel will some day know the full meaning ofIsaiah 53:1-12 2 , and when He is owned at last the glories and blessings of... read more
