Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Isaiah 26:12
Yahweh would establish peace for His people (Isaiah 26:3) because everything that they had done He had really done for them (cf. Philippians 2:12-13). We cannot establish peace for ourselves, but He will. Only He can break through the darkness of human depravity (Jonah 2:9). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Isaiah 26:11
(11) They will not see . . .—Better, they did not see, or, they see not, so as to bring out the contrast with the clause that follows. When the “arm of Jehovah,” the symbol of His power, was simply lifted up for the protection of His people, the evildoers closed their eyes and would not see it. A time will come when judgments shall fall on them, and so they shall be made to see.Shall be ashamed for their envy at the people.—Better, they shall see (and be ashamed) the jealousy (of God) for the... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Isaiah 26:1-21
The Mark for Recognizing God's Peace Isaiah 26:3 I. It is not said, 'Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed'. There is nothing in mere movelessness which is suggestive of peace. A mind may be motionless without being rested; nay, it may be motionless by reason of its unrest.

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 26:1-21
CHAPTER XXIXGOD’S POORDATE UNCERTAINIsaiah 25:1-12; Isaiah 26:1-21; Isaiah 27:1-13WE have seen that no more than the faintest gleam of historical reflection brightens the obscurity of chapter 24, and that the disaster which lowers there is upon too world-wide a scale to be forced within the conditions of any single period in the fortunes of Israel. In chapters 25-27, which may naturally be held to be a continuation of chapter 24, the historical allusions are more numerous. Indeed, it might be... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Isaiah 26:1-21
CHAPTER 26 Judah’s Glory Song 1. Praise for Jehovah’s faithfulness and mercies (Isaiah 26:1-6 ) 2. The experiences of waiting during the night (Isaiah 26:7-11 ) 3. The assurance of peace and deliverance (Isaiah 26:12-18 ) 4. Assurance of restoration and preservation (Isaiah 26:19-21 ) We call attention to verses 12-21. Annihilationists base upon these words the evil doctrine that the wicked are not raised, but destroyed. The fact, however, is that Isaiah 26:13 and Isaiah 26:14 do not... read more
