Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 54:15-17

Isaiah 54:15-17. Behold, &c.— The meaning of Isa 54:15 is this: "It shall come to pass, that enemies shall gather themselves together against, and oppose the church, but their endeavours shall become fruitless, and they shall fall." God, by his providence, would so order it, (as it follows in the next verse,) that whatever enemies should rise up against the church, should not be able to do it any hurt, as rising up without his appointment against a church protected; for, behold, says he, I... read more

Those who desire to "condemn" thee thou shalt "condemn" (Exodus 11:7; Joshua 10:21; Psalms 64:8; Romans 8:1; Romans 8:33). righteousness . . . of me— (Isaiah 45:24; Isaiah 46:13).

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 54:11-17

The rebuilt city 54:11-17Isaiah changed his illustration from a restored wife to a rebuilt city, but the point remains the same. The contrast between the city of man and the city of God is one that Isaiah developed quite fully (cf. Isaiah 1:26-27; Isaiah 2:2-4; Isaiah 4:2-6; Isaiah 12:1-6; Isaiah 24:10; Isaiah 25:1-9; Isaiah 26:1-6; Isaiah 35:10; Isaiah 47:1; Isaiah 52:1; Isaiah 66:10-14). The people of God can anticipate a glorious future. The prophet was not describing the rebuilding of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 54:17

Even though opponents might arise, they would be ineffective against God’s invincible people. Hard steel or a hot tongue, two forms of antagonism that represent all forms of it, would not prosper. Yahweh’s vindication of His people would be the heritage of His servants in that peaceful era. That heritage would include restoration to intimacy with God (cf. Isaiah 54:1-10), and, for Israel, fulfillment of the promises in the Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 12:7)."Beginning here and... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 54:17

(17) Every tongue that shall rise . . .—The thought implied is that war comes as the punishment of guilt, and that it is preceded by the “cry” of accusation. Many such cries had risen up against the old Jerusalem (Isaiah 5:7). There should be none such heard against the new.This is the heritage.—The solemn asseveration indicates the close of a distinct section. 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
