Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 17:14

17:14 And behold at the time of evening {q} trouble; [and] before the morning he [is] not. This [is] the portion of them that plunder us, and the lot of them that rob us.(q) He compares the Assyrians to a tempest which rises overnight and in the morning is gone. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 17:1-14

JUDGMENT ON GENTILE NATIONS This is a long lesson to read, but the study put upon it need not be proportioned to its length. There is a sameness in the chapters, and their contents are not unlike what we reviewed in the preceding lesson. Note the names of the nations and their contiguity to God’s chosen people. They have come in contact with their history again and again, which is why they are singled out for special mention. It will be well here to review what was said about these Gentile... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 17:14

God In Opposition Isaiah 17:14 ; Isa 18:4-5 Reading some portions of Isaiah is like passing through a succession of thunderstorms on a dark night: no sooner is one over than another begins: the darkness is cut to pieces by lightning, and the most solid things are rent and torn by the very demon of anger: nations are split like soft wood; empires are shattered like the toys of a child; as for kings, they melt like bubbles on a stream; thrones are no more accounted of than the stubble which is... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 17:9-14

I include the whole under one view, and, besides the general observation to be made upon them as a prophecy, fully accomplished, in after ages, I pray the Reader to make his spiritual reflections upon what is here said, and I venture to believe that he will find a large scope for the most improving application. If the Lord's Israel do forsake the Lord, the Rock of their salvation, the sure consequence is chastisement and disappointment. The Lord withers their gourds, and a worm will grow out of... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 17:14

REFLECTIONS READER! mark the burden of Damascus; and behold, in the history of that people, the final end of all the enemies of God, and of his Christ. Of what avail was the splendour of this kingdom, or the power of her armies? Though the haughty Syrian exclaimed, in the vanity of his heart, Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters in Israel? yet, like the waters of the Dead Sea, everything around them, and in them, and what was brought forth from their... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 17:12-14

12-14 The rage and force of the Assyrians resembled the mighty waters of the sea; but when the God of Israel should rebuke them, they would flee like chaff, or like a rolling thing, before the whirlwind. In the evening Jerusalem would be in trouble, because of the powerful invader, but before morning his army would be nearly cut off. Happy are those who remember God as their salvation, and rely on his power and grace. The trouble of the believers, and the prosperity of their enemies, will be... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 17:9-14

A Woe upon Israel's Enemies v. 9. In that day shall his strong cities, namely, those of Ephraim, the northern kingdom, be as a forsaken bough and an uppermost branch, literally, "like the forsaken places in the forests and mountain summits," ruined strongholds in remote parts of the country, which they left because of the children of Israel, which the Canaanites deserted in retiring before the children of Israel; and there shall be desolation, all the great fortresses of Israel sharing the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 17:1-14

In this section (17-18), we have a prophecy dealing with Damascus and an interlude containing a soliloquy of the prophet. The burden of Damascus ( Isa 17:1-11 ) announces its doom. It is evident, however, that the prophet had in mind an alliance which had been entered into between Israel, or Ephraim, and Damascus. The doom of Damascus means the destruction of the fortress of Ephraim. The prophet then proceeds to describe the judgment of Ephraim, which will issue from the destruction of... read more
