Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 32:1-2

Isaiah 32:1-2. Behold, a king shall reign— The prophet sets forth the two consequences of this gracious and glorious benefit; namely,—in these verses,—the flourishing and prosperous reign of Hezekiah, to shew forth itself at this time in all the authority and beauty of virtue and holiness, as a type of Jesus Christ, the most perfect king, who was to spring from him; such as he should shew himself in his kingdom, after having avenged his church by the rulers of the Roman empire, from the tyranny... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 32:3

Isaiah 32:3. And the eyes, &c.— The prophet here goes on to set forth the prerogatives of this time and kingdom; which, however primarily they may refer to the reign of Hezekiah, must, in their full and complete sense, be referred to the reign of Christ. He says, that the demonstration of the divine glory, justice, and grace, should be so brightly displayed in this strange event of the Assyrian overthrow, and in other similar signs discovered at this time, (see chap. 38:) that they who... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 32:4

Isaiah 32:4. The heart also of the rash— Of the inconsiderate. The meaning of this verse is, that men of precipitate judgment, who had too inconsiderately passed their opinion concerning the administration of divine Providence, and had either unfortunately and unreasonably, or in a doubtful and involved manner, delivered their notion of God and his ways, should by this remarkable event be awakened to a right and perfect knowledge of the divine Providence, and should express their thoughts and... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:2

2. a man—rather, the man Christ [LOWTH]; it is as "the Son of man" He is to reign, as it was as Son of man He suffered (Matthew 26:64; John 5:27; John 19:5). Not as MAURER explains, "every one of the princes shall be," c. rivers—as refreshing as water and the cool shade are to the heated traveller (Isaiah 35:6 Isaiah 35:7; Isaiah 41:18). read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 32:4

4. rash—rather, "the hasty"; contrast "shall not make haste" ( :-); the reckless who will not take time to weigh religious truth aright. Or else, the well-instructed [HORSLEY]. stammers—those who speak confusedly on divine things (compare Exodus 4:10-12; Jeremiah 1:6; Matthew 10:19; Matthew 10:20). Or, rather, those drunken scorners who in stammering style imitated Isaiah's warnings to mock them [MAURER] (Isaiah 28:7-11; Isaiah 28:13; Isaiah 28:14; Isaiah 28:22; Isaiah 29:20); in this view,... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 32:1-8

Coming deliverance in the future 32:1-8Having introduced the eschatological day of the Lord (Isaiah 31:7) and the interim day of the Lord (Isaiah 31:8-9), Isaiah proceeded to reveal more about these times. He also contrasted the king of the Assyrians (Isaiah 31:9) with the messianic King to come."The destruction of the Assyrian army points prophetically to the final world conflict, which will usher in the rule of Christ, the perfect King of Israel. Christ’s kingdom will fulfill God’s ideal of a... read more
