以赛亚书 30:14-15 CUNPSS

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:15

Quiet strength. These beautiful words suggest— I. THE FIRST DUTY OF THE ERRING . Judah had forsaken God to find a refuge in another power; the first duty of the nation, therefore, was "to return" unto the Lord, and to find its rest and its salvation in him. This is now and ever the immediate duty of all wanderers from God; both of those who have never been reconciled to him through Jesus Christ, and of those who, like the Jews on this occasion, have temporarily forsaken his... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 30:15

Quietness and confidence. These terms are related. Quietness is the result of confidence. Confidence is the secret of quietness. The quietness thought of by the prophet was the abandonment of the disquieting and distracting search for earthly aids, as in the case of seeking help from Egypt; the confidence he commends is that patient waiting on God and waiting for God, which are the necessary expressions of our faith in him. I. A GREAT ATTAINMENT . So great, so nearly impossible for... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 30:14

And he shall break it as the breaking - That is, its breaking shall be like the breaking of a potter’s vessel. The Septuagint reads it, ‘And its fall (τὸ πτῶμα to ptōma) shall be like the breaking of an earthen vessel,’As the breaking of the potter’s vessel - That is, as an earthen, fragile vessel, which is easily dashed to pieces. The image here is all drawn from the bursting forth, or the complete ruin of the swelling wall; but the sense is, that the Jewish republic would be entirely... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 30:15

For thus saith the Lord God - The design of this verse is to give a reason for the destruction that should come upon them. That reason was, that God had indicated to them the path of truth and safety, but they chose not to follow it, and refused to put confidence in him.In returning - In returning to God; that is, if you are converted to him.And rest - That is, by calmly reposing on God for assistance, and not seeking the alliance of Egypt (see Exodus 14:13).In quietness - In a collected, quiet... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 30:12-14

Isaiah 30:12-14. Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression In the wealth which you have gotten by oppression, whereby you now think to procure Egyptian succours; and perverseness In your perverse and rebellious course of sending to Egypt for help. This iniquity shall be to you as a breach, &c. Like a wall, which is high, and seems to be strong, but, swelling out in some parts, upon the least accident falleth down suddenly to the ground. Such shall be the issue of your... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 30:15-17

Isaiah 30:15-17. In returning From your present purpose of sending to Egypt; or, as the LXX., the Syriac, and Arabic understand it, in returning to God; shall ye be saved Preserved from the power of your enemies. In quietness and confidence In a calm and quiet submission to the divine will, and a confidence placed on his mercy, power, and faithfulness; shall be your strength Your support under your troubles, and your ability to withstand your invaders. But ye said, No; for we will... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 30:1-33

The folly of relying on Egypt (30:1-33)All Isaiah’s warnings against an alliance with Egypt are in vain. As he learns that a group of Judean representatives is on its way to Egypt, he points out again how disastrous this alliance will prove to be. Judah’s reliance on Egypt is against God’s will and in the end will bring only disgrace upon Judah (30:1-5).Isaiah pictures the dangerous journey, as a caravan of donkeys and camels carry Judah’s payment through the dry southern region of Judah... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 30:12-14

Isaiah 30:12-14. Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel— The consequence of the fault is here exhibited by the prophet in two sentences; the former in these verses, the latter in Isaiah 30:15-18. The prophet in this place declares, that their punishment shall be the entire destruction of their state, set forth under two chosen and apt figures; to which the prophet premises an introduction, thereby to conciliate authority to his words, in the name of that God whom the degenerate Israelites... read more
