以赛亚书 4:2 CUVS

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 4:2

The branch of the Lord - צמח יהוה yehovâh tsemach. “The sprout” of Yahweh. This expression, and this verse, have had a great variety of interpretations. The Septuagint reads it, ‘In that day God shall shine in counsel with glory upon the earth, to exalt, and to glorify the remnant of Israel.’ The Chaldee renders it, ‘In that day, the Messiah of the Lord shall be for joy and glory, and the doers of the law for praise and honor to those of Israel who are delivered.’ It is clear that the passage... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 4:2

Isaiah 4:2. In that day About and after that time, when the Lord shall have washed away (as this time is particularly expressed, Isaiah 4:4,) the filth of Zion, by those dreadful judgments now described. The third part of this discourse, the reader will observe, begins here, in which is set forth the flourishing state of the remnant of the Jews after the times of the former calamity. Shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious The church and people of Israel may be here... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Isaiah 4:2-6

New life (4:2-6)Having judged his people and removed sin, God blesses the righteous that remain. This new blessing is symbolized by a tree that bursts into new life and by a field that brings fresh growth. A new Israel is born where the people of God are those whom he has saved and made holy (2-4). In the new Jerusalem God dwells among and protects his people in a relationship far more wonderful than in previous times (5-6). read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 4:2

Isaiah 4:2. In that day, &c.— The third part of this discourse begins here; in which is set forth the flourishing state of the remnant of the Jewish people after the times of the former calamity, under the care and providence of an illustrious person whom the prophet here calls the BRANCH of Jehovah. In this period we have, first, a prophecy of the Branch of Jehovah; and the fruit of the earth; to be seen in Sion as the king of the people congregated in his name. Secondly, the internal... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 4:2

2. In contrast to those on whom vengeance falls, there is a manifestation of Jesus Christ to the "escaped of Israel" in His characteristic attributes, beauty and glory, typified in Aaron's garments ( :-). Their sanctification is promised as the fruit of their being "written" in the book of life by sovereign love (Isaiah 4:3); the means of it are the "spirit of judgment" and that of "burning" (Isaiah 4:4). Their "defense" by the special presence of Jesus Christ is promised (Isaiah 4:5; Isaiah... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 4:2

"In that day" connects this section of the oracle with its earlier parts and shows that all of it deals with a future time (cf. Isaiah 2:12; Isaiah 2:17; Isaiah 2:20; Isaiah 3:8; Isaiah 3:18; Isaiah 4:1). However, here we learn that "that day" will be a day of glory and vindication for Israel, as well as retribution and judgment.In a general sense "The Branch of the Lord" refers to Israel, but this is also a messianic title here as elsewhere (cf. Isaiah 11:1; Isaiah 53:2; Jeremiah 23:5;... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 4:2-6

3. God’s determination for Israel 4:2-6Having begun this oracle by clarifying God’s desire for Israel (Isaiah 2:1-4), the prophet proceeded to contrast her present condition. She depended on people rather than Himself, a condition that would result in divine discipline (Isaiah 2:5 to Isaiah 4:1). Next, and in conclusion, he revealed that God would indeed bring what He determined for His chosen people to completion in the future (Isaiah 4:2-6). Israel’s destiny would be glorious-in spite of... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 4:1-6

1. The women do not claim to be kept as the man’s wives, but only pray that he will remove from them the reproach of being childless (cp. Genesis 30:23), so depopulated has the land become. The v. belongs to Isaiah 3.In that day] i.e. when the Day of God’s judgment (Isaiah 2:12; Isaiah 3:18) is over.2.

Fertility of the soil is often a feature of the ideal future in the... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 4:2

(2) In that day . . .—The dark picture of punishment is relieved by a vision of Messianic glory, like that of Isaiah 2:1-4. The “day” is, as in Isaiah 3:18, the time of Jehovah’s judgments.The branch of the Lord . . .—The thought of the “branch,” though not the Hebrew word, is the same as in Isaiah 11:1. The word itself is found in the Messianic prophecies of Jeremiah 23:5-6; Jeremiah 33:15; Zechariah 3:8; Zechariah 6:12. The two latter probably inherited both the thought and the word from this... read more

2CHAPTER IITHE THREE JERUSALEMS740-735 B.C.Isaiah 2:1-22; Isaiah 3:1-26; Isaiah 4:1-6AFTER the general introduction, in chapter 1, to the prophecies of Isaiah, there comes another portion of the book, of greater length, but nearly as distinct as the first.

They deal with exactly the same subjects, but they differ greatly inform. One section (chapters 2-4.)... read more
