Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Isaiah 22:23-24

Isaiah 22:23-24. And I will fasten him as a nail— See Ezra 9:8. The word יתד iathed, rendered a nail, signifies a pole, or post, fixed in the earth, in the middle of a tent, to support the top, which, being full of hooks, serves likewise to hang vessels, garments, and the like, upon. See Zechariah 10:4. The meaning is, that God would confirm and establish Eliakim, as a nail or pole which remains fixed and immoveable in the earth, and which, moreover, is useful for the support of those things... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 22:24

It was customary to "hang" the valuables of a house on nails (1 Kings 10:16; 1 Kings 10:17; 1 Kings 10:21; Song of Solomon 4:4). offspring and the issue—rather, "the offshoots of the family, high and low" [VITRINGA].

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 22:23-24

He would also serve as a tent peg holding the royal house and all Jerusalem stable against the winds of adversity. He would bring glory to his father’s house. He would be such a strong figure that many people would rely on him and commit much responsibility to him. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 22:15-25

Denunciation of ShebnaThis section contains Isaiah’s only invective against an individual. He denounces Shebna, the king’s chief minister, who may have been a leader of the party which favoured alliance with Egypt. The prophecy was delivered before Sennacherib’s invasion (701 b.c.), because at that time we read that Eliakim held the office Isaiah here promises him, while Shebna occupied a subordinate position (Isaiah 36:3; Isaiah 37:2).15-25. The deposition of Shebna. The elevation of... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 22:23

(23) I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place . . .—The word for “nail” is used both for the peg that fastens a tent to the ground, as in the “stakes” of Isaiah 33:20; Isaiah 54:2; Judges 4:21, or, as in Ezekiel 15:3, for a nail driven into the wall. Here the context shows that the latter meaning is preferable. It was, as the sequel shows, a symbol of the support upon which others can depend. (Comp. the “nail in his holy place” of Ezra 9:8.)He shall be for a glorious throne . . .—Another... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 22:24

(24) And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father’s house . . .—The metaphor of the nail is resumed. Not without a touch of irony, as the sequel shows, the prophet paints the extent to which those who belong to Eliakim will hang upon his support. There will be the “glory” or the “weight” (the Hebrew word has both meanings) of his next-of-kin. Besides these there will be the remoter off-shoots and side-shoots of his family. But the number will increase, and upon that single nail, or... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 22:1-25

CHAPTER XXTHE TURN OF THE TIDE: MORAL EFFECTS OF FORGIVENESS701 B.C.Isaiah 22:1-25 Contrasted With 33THE collapse of Jewish faith and patriotism in the face of the enemy was complete. Final and absolute did Isaiah’s sentence ring out: "Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith Jehovah of hosts." So we learn from chapter 22, written, as we conceive, in 701, when the Assyrian armies had at last invested Jerusalem. But in chapter 33, which critics unite in placing a few... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Isaiah 22:1-25

CHAPTER 22 The Burden of the Valley of Vision (Jerusalem) 1. Jerusalem’s deplorable state (Isaiah 22:1-4 ) 2. The invading armies (Isaiah 22:5-7 ) 3. The siege and the calamity (Isaiah 22:8-14 ) 4. Shebna (Isaiah 22:15-19 ) 5. Eliakim (Isaiah 22:20-25 ) This is another intensely interesting prophecy. Jerusalem has passed through many sieges and at last in part the prophecy has been fulfilled. But there is another siege of Jerusalem impending. It will come after the message of the... read more
