イザヤ書 11:9-12 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:11

The Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover , etc. The first recovery was from the servitude in Egypt. Isaiah now foresees that there will be a dispersion of the Israelites through several distant lands, instead of a mere transference of them from one land to another, as in Jacob's time ( Genesis 46:1-29 ). God, who brought them out of Egypt, will likewise some day "set his hand" to recover them from the various countries through which they will have been dispersed, and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:11

The unity of the race in Messiah's kingdom. This unity is the great dream and hope of humanity. It can never be attained in any temporal kingdom, and it could be only a formal and outward unity ii it were. No unities of mind or of government are possible; but unity of heart is. Men can be one in God; and one in that spiritual kingdom in which God rules. This verse is used as an argument for what is known as the second coming of Christ. Its force and value in that relation we do not now... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:11-12

The refuge of the remnant. Allusion is here made again to "the remnant" (see Isaiah 10:20-22 ), who are spoken of in the following verse ( Isaiah 11:12 ) as "the outcasts" and "the dispersed." The remnant of a thing or of a community is not the choice part, but rather that which is left when everything (every one) else has been chosen—the shapeless scraps which remain when all else has been selected and appropriated; the broken-off ends which are flung aside as of no account; the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Isaiah 11:12

He shall set up an ensign for the nations (comp. Isaiah 11:10 ). Christ is the Ensign. God sets it up to draw the nations to his standard. The outcasts of Israel … the dispersed of Judah . "Outcasts" is masculine, "the dispersed" feminine. The meaning is, "He shall gather together the outcasts and dispersed of both Israel and Judah, both male and female." read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 11:9

They shall not hurt - That is, those who are designated above under the emblems of the lion, the leopard, the bear, and the adder.Nor destroy in all my holy mountain - Mount Zion; used here, as elsewhere, to denote the seat of his reign on the earth, or his church; the notes at Isaiah 1:8; Isaiah 2:4. The disposition of people, naturally ferocious and cruel, shall be changed so entirely, that the causes of strife and contention shall cease. They shall be disposed to do justice, and to promote... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 11:10

And in that day - That future time when the reign of the Messiah shall be established; Note, Isaiah 3:2; Isaiah 4:1. The prophet, having described the birth, and the personal characteristics of the great personage to whom he referred, together with the peaceful effects of his reign, proceeds to state the result of that reign in some other respects. The first is Isaiah 11:10, that the “Gentiles” would be brought under his reign; the second Isaiah 11:14, that it would be attended with the... read more

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

And it shall come to pass - The prophet having, in the previous verse, stated the effect of the reign of the Messiah on the Gentile world, proceeds to state the result on the scattered Jews. Whether it is to be a literal re-collecting of the scattered tribes to the land of their fathers, has been a subject of debate, and is still so by expositors. We may be able to determine what is the correct general interpretation after the particular phrases have been examined.In that day - That future time... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 11:12

And he shall set up an ensign - See Isaiah 11:10. The Messiah shall stand in view of the nations, as a standard is erected by a military leader. An ensign or standard was usually lifted up on the mountains or on some elevated place (compare Isaiah 18:3); and the meaning here is, that the Messiah would be the conspicuous object around which the nations would rally.And shall assemble - This word, אסף 'âsaph, properly means, to gather, collect, to assemble together, as fruits are collected for... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Isaiah 11:9

Isaiah 11:9. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain Here the prophet himself gives us a key wherewith to open his meaning in the three preceding verses. By the holy mountain he means, the Christian Church, frequently termed Zion, Jerusalem, and God’s holy mountain, in the writings of the prophets. Wherever the gospel comes and prevails; wherever the true and genuine religion of Christ takes place and is established, these effects are produced. And in due time the... read more
