以賽亞書 24:5 CUNPTS

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 24:5

(5) The earth also is defiled.—The verb is used of blood-guiltiness in Numbers 35:33, of impurity in Jeremiah 3:1-2; Jeremiah 3:9. It includes, therefore, all the sins that, in modern phrase, desecrate humanity. Taking the word in its wider range, each form of evil was a transgression of the “everlasting covenant” of Genesis 9:16. read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Isaiah 24:1-23

The Consecration of Suffering Isaiah 24:15 Religion consists in taking things out of their common places, and in removing them from a lower to a higher level. To hold everything in God, to use it for God, to dedicate it to God this is consecration. I. The Great Danger of Suffering whether it be physical or mental suffering is threefold: a. Pride, because we become exceptional, and are made much of. b. Indolence, because the nerves become unstrung. c. Selfishness, because at such times... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 24:1-23

CHAPTER XXVIIITHE EFFECT OF SIN ON OUR MATERIAL CIRCUMSTANCEDATE UNCERTAINIsaiah 24:1-23THE twenty-fourth of Isaiah is one of those chapters which almost convince the most persevering reader of Scripture that a consecutive reading of the Authorised Version is an impossibility. For what does he get from it but a weary and unintelligent impression of destruction, from which he gladly escapes to the nearest clear utterance of gospel or judgment? Criticism affords little help. It cannot clearly... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Isaiah 24:1-23

CHAPTER 24 The Day of Jehovah 1. Jehovah dealing with the earth(Isaiah 24:1 ) 2. All classes affected (Isaiah 24:2 ) 3. The Desolations described (Isaiah 24:3-12 ) 4.

Jehovah’s reign in Mount Zion and Jerusalem (Isaiah 24:23 ) A marvellous chapter. Not a word of it has ever been fulfilled.

Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 24:5

24:5 The earth {c} also is defiled under its inhabitants; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.(c) That is, does not give her fruit for the sin of the people, whom the earth deceived of their nourishment because they deceived God of his honour. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 24:1-23

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 24:1-23

Self Overthrown Isaiah 24:0 Achapter like this will bear many readings. A quaint commentator has said, "This is gallant rhetoric, compared with which the thunders of Demosthenes are poor stuff." The man who wrote that knew every word that Demosthenes had ever said in his greatest orations. How true it is that there is no eloquence like the eloquence of the Bible! The difficulty is that people will not read it. The twenty-fourth chapter and the twenty-seventh, and all between, should be read at... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 24:4-12

Here is but little variation from what went before. The representation is as if taken from the prophets vision; the roll is written within and without, and the contents are lamentations, and mourning, and woe; Ezekiel 2:10 . One verse is in the midst to explain the cause, It is the curse which devoureth the earth; Genesis 3:17 . Reader, think what would have been the sorrow and misery forever, had not Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law, in being made a curse for us; Galatians 3:13 .... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 24:1-12

1-12 All whose treasures and happiness are laid up on earth, will soon be brought to want and misery. It is good to apply to ourselves what the Scripture says of the vanity and vexation of spirit which attend all things here below. Sin has turned the earth upside down; the earth is become quite different to man, from what it was when God first made it to be his habitation. It is, at the best, like a flower, which withers in the hands of those that please themselves with it, and lay it in their... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Isaiah 24:1-13

Isa_24:1 Isa_27:13 The last of these cities, upon which a "burden" rested, being disposed of, the prophetic strain moves on to make known in a more general way what would be the state of things at the end of the age. It is a dark and sorrowful picture: the whole earth turned upside down and the inhabitants scattered, no matter to what class they belonged. And not only Israel is in view, for though the closing accusations of verse Isa_24:5 may have special reference to them, since laws and... read more
