Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 41:8-20

CHAPTER XVITHE SERVANT OF THE LORDIsaiah 41:8-20; Isaiah 42:1-7; Isaiah 42:18; Isaiah 43:5-10; Isaiah 49:1-9; Isaiah 1:4-10; Isaiah 52:13-15With chapter 42, we reach a distinct stage in our prophecy. The preceding chapters have been occupied with the declaration of the great, basal truth, that Jehovah is the One Sovereign God. This has been declared to two classes of hearers in succession-to God’s own people, Israel, in chapter 40, and to the heathen in chapter 41. Having established His... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Isaiah 41:1-29

CHAPTER 41 Jehovah’s Challenge 1. The address to the islands and the peoples (Isaiah 41:1 ) 2. Jehovah’s question, Cyrus and his ways predicted (Isaiah 41:2-4 ) 3.

Jehovah’s second challenge: He alone can declare things to come (Isaiah 41:21-24 ) 7. The future things revealed (Isaiah 41:25-29 ) Cyrus is... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 41:1-29

ISAIAH INTRODUCTION TO PART TWO The chapters of Part 2 (chaps. 40-46) are chiefly millennial, and so different from the prevailing themes preceding, as to raise a query whether they were not written by some other author a second, or deutero-Isaiah, as some call him. We do not hold that opinion, the reasons for which are briefly stated in the author’s Primers of the Faith. In Synthetic Bible Studies, it was found convenient to treat this part as a single discourse though doubtless, such is not... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 41:1-29

Isaiah 41:0 1. Keep silence before me, O islands [a word which always signifies far-off lands, sea-coasts distant as the horizon]; and let the people renew their strength [pull themselves together, gird up their loins, that they may wrestle with almightiness]: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment [let us wrestle together, let us enter into this controversy: the tone is that of a challenge, a contemptuous defiance]. 2. Who raised up the righteous man... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 41:8-10

I beg the Reader to pause over these blessed verses, and inquire, with me, whether it be not the Lord Jesus that is here spoken to by Jehovah, when beholding him as the Husband and Head of his Church and people? There can be no doubt that such is the case in that similar passage, Isaiah 49:3 . for there the Lord Jesus is surely the Speaker. And, indeed, those blessed promises which follow, must confirm it. For all the promises of the Bible are first made to the Person of Christ, and then in... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 41:1-9

1-9 Can any heathen god raise up one in righteousness, make what use of him he pleases, and make him victorious over the nations? The Lord did so with Abraham, or rather, he would do so with Cyrus. Sinners encourage one another in the ways of sin; shall not the servants of the living God stir up one another in his service? God's people are the seed of Abraham his friend. This is certainly the highest title ever given to a mortal. It means that Abraham, by Divine grace, was made like to God, and... read more

The Lord's Promise of a Future Victory v. 8. But thou, Israel, art My servant, as Jehovah, in a section replete with love and consolation, assures His children, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham, My friend, His servants, the people of His covenant, of old, especially the spiritual descendants of him who had the honor of being known as the friend of God. v. 9. Thou, whom I have taken from the ends of the earth and called thee from the chief men thereof, from its most remote... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 41:1-16

the Lord Upholdeth His Servant Isaiah 41:1-16 The conception of this passage is superb. Jehovah is represented as summoning the earth to determine whether He or some idol of the heathen is the true God, Isaiah 41:7 . Also see Isaiah 41:23 . The test proposed is a simple one! Which can most precisely predict the future? Not, as in Elijah’s case, is the appeal made to fire, but to the fitting of prophecy with historical fulfillment. See Isaiah 41:22-23 . While this great arbitration is in... read more
