以賽亞書 62:10-12 CUNPTS

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:10

The mission of those who remove hindrances. The point of interest here is that, so far as Jehovah was concerned, all things were arranged for the return of the exiles, and the restoration of the long-depressed nation. But some men were hindering the return by their hesitancies and doubtings and selfishnesses. Therefore Jehovah pleads with all who trust his Word, urging them to clear the way of the people, and get these hindrances moved out of their path. There are always hinderers to every... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:10-12

The homeward call. "The prophet returns to the exiles in Babylon, and urges them not to delay their homeward march." It is the same call which resounded in the two former divisions of the prophecy ( Isaiah 48:20 ; Isaiah 52:11 ). I. THE WAY CLEARED . The gates of Babylon are to be thrown open. Invisible servants of Jehovah are to prepare the way ( Isaiah 40:3 ; Isaiah 57:14 ). A great highway (as in Isaiah 11:16 ) is seen stretching homeward, from which the party of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:10-12

God's summons to the enslaved. Taking the language of the tenth verse as an energetic address to the captive people of God to "go through" the gates of Babylon, and make their way with all diligence to Zion, the home of freedom and sacred joy, we have— I. A DIVINE SUMMONS TO THE ENSLAVED . To the individual soul , that has been brought into some spiritual bondage, perhaps under the tyranny of some enslaving habit; to the Christian Church , which has allowed itself to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:11

Meanwhile Jehovah, by his angels or his prophets, causes it to be made known to the ends of the earth that the redemption of Israel draws nigh, and that Zion's" salvation" approaches . His reward is with him , etc. The words are repeated from Isaiah 40:10 . Here they are certainly said of Israel. They go forth from Babylon, having their reward with them— i.e. liberty, honour, riches to some extent ( Ezra 1:4-11 ), and their work, or rather their recompense— the possession of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:11

The nearness of the Lord's coming used as a persuasion. The immediate reference here is to the Lord's manifestation in the providences that led to the return of the exiles to Jerusalem. The Church has in every age had some great hope held out before it, and that hope could always be conceived of as a coming or manifestation of the Lord. Three "comings' are commonly recognized. Our Lord's coming in the flesh, as the Babe of Bethlehem, and the "Man Christ Jesus." Our Lord's coming in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 62:12

They shall call them ; or, men shall call them , equivalent to "they shall be called." The holy people . The Persians in some degree recognized this character in the Israelites ( Ezra 1:2 , Ezra 1:3 ; Ezra 6:8-12 : Ezra 7:12-26 ). So did Alexander, according to Josephus. The Romans, on the contrary, regarded them as the votaries of a degrading superstition. Since the Roman conquest, they have been almost universally despised. Perhaps the prophecy may be considered to still... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 62:10

Go through, go through the gates - The connection of this with what goes before is not very apparent, and there has been a great diversity of opinion in regard to it among interpreters. Grotius supposes that it refers to the priests and Levites who are referred to also in the previous verses, and that it is a command for them to enter into the temple. Calvin supposes that it refers to the Christian church, and that the idea is, that the gates of it should be continually open for the return of... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 62:11

Behold the Lord hath proclaimed - Proclamation is made to all nations that Yahweh is about to come and rescue his people.Say ye to the daughter of Zion - To Jerusalem (see the notes at Isaiah 1:8).Thy salvation cometh - Lowth renders this, ‘Lo!, thy Saviour cometh.’ So the Vulgate, the Septuagint, the Chaldee, and the Syriac. The Hebrew word properly means salvation, but the reference is to God as the Deliverer or Saviour. The immediate allusion is probably to the return from Babylon, but the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 62:12

And they shall call them - It shall be the honorable and just name by which they shall be known, that they are a holy people, and that they are the redeemed of Yahweh. No name is so honorable as that; no one conveys so much that is elevated and ennobling as to say of one, ‘he is one whom Yahweh has redeemed from sin and death and hell by atoning blood.’ He who has a just sense of the import of this name, will desire no Other record to be made of his life - no other inscription on his tomb -... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 62:10

Isaiah 62:10. Go through the gates Namely, the gates of Babylon, which shall be thrown open, that those confined in that idolatrous city may leave it with freedom, and return to the land of Israel. In other words, for the expressions are metaphorical, let all obstructions be removed out of the way of the heathen, that they may have free liberty to bid adieu to their idolatries and vices, and come to, and unite themselves with, the Christian Church. Or, the words may be considered as a... read more
