Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:4

Neither shall they learn war any more - If wars are necessary, how deep must that fall be that renders them so! But what a reproach to humanity is the trade of war! Men are regularly instructed in it, as in any of the necessary arts. "How to dislodge most souls from their frail shrines By bomb, sword, ball, and bayonet, is the art Which some call great and glorious!" And is this a necessary part of a finished education in civilized society? O Earth! Earth! Earth! read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:6

They be replenished "And they multiply" - Seven MSS. and one edition, for ישפיקו yaspiku , read ישפיחו yaspichu , "and have joined themselves to the children of strangers;" that is, in marriage or worship. - Dr. Jubb. So Vulg., adhaeserunt. Compare Isaiah 14:1 . But the very learned professor Chevalier Michaelis has explained the word יספחו yesupachu , Job 30:7 , (German translation, note on the place), in another manner; which perfectly well agrees with that place, and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 2:7

Their land is also full of horses "And his land is filled with horses" - This was in direct contradiction to God's command in the law: "But he (the king) shall not multiply horses to himself; nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses; neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold," Deuteronomy 17:16 , Deuteronomy 17:17 . Uzziah seems to have followed the example of Solomon, see 1 Kings 10:26-29 , who first transgressed in these... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:1-4

Hope and fear to be both called out as motives by the preacher. Already in the first chapter Isaiah has appealed to both motives, and while for the most part denouncing Israel's sins, and declaring their coming punishment, has taken care to intersperse among these warnings announcements of a more cheerful character (see particularly verses 9, 19, and 25-27). Now, being about to devote almost two whole chapters to denunciations, he prefaces them with one of the most glorious and joy-inspiring... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:1-4

The golden age. I. THE BLESSED OR GOLDEN AGE A SUBJECT OF EARLY PROPHECY . It is believed that we have in these verses a very ancient oracle, first delivered by the earlier prophet Joel (see Joel 3:10 ), and from him repeated by Isaiah and Micah ( Micah 4:1-4 ). An eternal hopefulness lived in the heart of the great prophets, like a light shining in a dark place, amidst all the scenes of national sin and depression. What has been said of true poetry is to be said of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:1-5

The promised future: a missionary sermon. I. THAT DIVINE TRUTH WILL KNOW A TIME OF GLORIOUS ELEVATION . The "last days" ( Isaiah 2:2 ) may be distant days, may be "afar off" still, but they are coming ; we are steadily advancing to them. The "mountain of the Lord's house" may be low down today, but it will rise; it may be but as a hill of sacred truth obscured among the mountains of error. But God's high purpose shall surely be fulfilled in time; the day will dawn... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:2

In the last days ; literally, in the sequel of the days ; but generally used of a remote future ( Genesis 49:1 ; Numbers 24:14 ; Deuteronomy 4:30 , etc.). The mountain of the Lord's house ; i.e. the Church, the true Zion, which is to be the antitype of the existing Zion, and is therefore given its material attributes. Spiritually, it would be a "mountain," as "a city set on a hill," which "could not be hid" ( Matthew 5:14 ); and again, as occupying a position from which it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:2-4

PROPHECY OF THE LAST DAYS . The resemblance of this prophecy to Micah 4:1-3 is so close as to necessitate the conclusion either that one of the two prophets copied from the other, or that both copied from an earlier document. The latter view, which is that taken by Rosenmüller, Maurer, De Wette, Meier, and Mr. Cheyne, seems preferable. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:3

Many people ; rather, many peoples . Shall go ; or, set forth . The prophet means to represent the nations as encouraging one another on the way. There is no jealousy among them, for the "mountain" can hold them all. He will teach us . The nations feel their ignorance of God, and their need of "teaching." God alone can teach them concerning himself ( Romans 11:33 , Romans 11:34 ; 1 Corinthians 2:10 , 1 Corinthians 2:11 ); and "he will teach" them, either directly, as the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 2:3

Real religious revival "Many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob." Here is the tide of national feeling, no longer on the ebb, but on the flow. God is "to teach them his ways, and they are to walk in his paths;" for they have found out that pleasure gained by sin is peace bartered. Elevation of the truest kind is to be theirs now. This is the image of their uplifted state. They are to go up to the mountain of the... read more
