Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 1:5-6

Isaiah 1:5-6. Why should ye be stricken, &c. From the 4th to the 6th verse the prophet describes the mortal state of the people who had apostatized from God, and continued obstinate in that apostacy; and from thence to the 10th verse, their external or natural state. The metaphors here used are in themselves sufficiently clear, as is also their application in this view. Vitringa is of opinion, that the prophet here describes the state of the people under Ahaz. read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 1:4

4. people—the peculiar designation of God's elect nation ( :-), that they should be "laden with iniquity" is therefore the more monstrous. Sin is a load (Psalms 38:4; Matthew 11:28). seed—another appellation of God's elect (Genesis 12:7; Jeremiah 2:21), designed to be a "holy seed" (Isaiah 6:13), but, awful to say, "evildoers!" children—by adoption (Hosea 11:1), yet "evildoers"; not only so, but "corrupters" of others (Hosea 11:1- :); the climax. So "nation—people—seed children."... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 1:4-9

The prophet amplified God’s charge and proved it by referring to Israel’s condition. He lamented that Israel’s state was the logical outcome of her behavior."The interjection ’ah’ [Isaiah 1:4] (the Hebrew word [hoy] is sometimes translated ’woe’) was a cry of mourning heard at funerals (see 1 Kings 13:30; Jeremiah 22:18-19; Amos 5:16). When Isaiah’s audience heard this word, images of death must have appeared in their minds." [Note: Robert B. Chisholm Jr., Handbook on the Prophets, p. 15.]... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 1:1-31

Jehovah’s Arraignment of His PeopleThis chapter is general in character, and much of it (e.g. Isaiah 1:10-17) might refer to almost any period. This general character of the prophecy renders it especially suitable as an introduction, and may account for its position at the beginning of the book. It gives us a picture of the internal condition of Judah in Isaiah’s age, and not only brings out his characteristic teaching, but more than any other OT. passage indicates the general line of prophetic... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 1:4

(4) Ah, sinful nation . . .—The Hebrew interjection is, like our English “Ha!” the expression of indignation rather than of pity.A seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters.—The first phrase in the Hebrew idiom does not mean “the progeny of evil-doers,” but those who, as a seed or brood, are made up of such. (Comp. Isaiah 14:20; Isaiah 65:23.) The word “children” (better, as in Isaiah 1:2, sons) once more emphasises the guilt of those who ought to have been obedient.They have forsaken the... read more
