以賽亞書 30:31 RCUVTS

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 30:1-33

JUDAH AND EGYPT These chapters make a unit since, with the exception of the opening part of chapter 28, they chiefly deal with Judah’s futile alliance with Egypt. Isaiah 28:0 Israel, or the kingdom of the ten tribes, is addressed under the name of her leading tribe “Ephraim” (Isaiah 28:1 ). Her great sin is strong drink. “The head of the fat valley” is Samaria the capital, which is soon to be overthrown by the Assyrians (Isaiah 28:2-4 ). Observe, however, the usual forecast of the end of the... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 30:1-33

Isaiah 30:0 1. Woe to the rebellious children [not to be read in a harsh tone, but rather as if it were, "alas, for the rebellious children:" into such vocatives does God put the expression of his pity], saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not of me [they go to the wrong spring for water, and find it poison]; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit [with tow that can be burned up], that they may add sin to sin [in quick and pestilent evolution]: 2. That walk to go down into... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 30:27-33

I hope that the Reader is, by this time, so well acquainted with scripture, as to need not the remark how, all along, the Lord is forever blending, judgment with mercy. Here we have, as in many other places in the word of God, the horrible punishment of the despisers of God and of his Christ; while we have been comforted with the blessings of those that love and fear him. And in all periods of the Church we find these united predictions constantly and faithfully fulfilled. And the people of God... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 30:27-33

27-33 God curbs and restrains from doing mischief. With a word he guides his people into the right way, but with a bridle he turns his enemies upon their own ruin. Here, in threatening the ruin of Sennacherib's army, the prophet points at the final and everlasting destruction of all impenitent sinners. Tophet was a valley near Jerusalem, where fires were continually burning to destroy things that were hurtful and offensive, and there the idolatrous Jews caused their children to pass through the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 30:15-33

Trust in Jehovah Rewarded; Overthrow of the Lord's Enemies v. 15. For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, In returning and rest, by turning back to the Lord in true repentance and trusting in Him all alone, shall ye be saved, finding deliverance from all the dangers which beset them; in quietness and in confidence, leaving it to the Lord alone to guide and direct them in all their affairs, shall be your strength, that being the secret of the power possessed by all believers; ... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 30:18-33

the Goodness of God’s Severity Isaiah 30:18-33 Jerusalem refused God’s invitation to return to Him and rest; they preferred to trust in Egyptian cavalry. Their Almighty Friend knew that this would end in disappointment, but He said that He would wait till they had exhausted every expedient and returned to Him. Then would He be gracious and have mercy. The results of repentance and forgiveness are set forth with singular beauty: no more tears; great grace; answered prayer; divine teaching;... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 30:1-33

This chapter contains two distinct messages. In the first, the prophet denounces an alliance with Egypt (verses Isa 30:1-26 ), and in the second foretells the destruction of Assyria (verses Isa 30:27-33 ). In the matter of the Egyptian alliance the prophet denounces the secret treaty, declares the shame and uselessness of it. He is instructed to write what shall be a testimony against the people. This he does by first describing the rebellious attitude which they have adopted, then by... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 30:19-33

For God’s Final Purpose is To Bless His True People Who Will Remain After His Chastisement and Purification, And To Defeat Their Enemies Himself (Isaiah 30:19-33 ). While the future holds adversity for them, His final purpose is to bless those who are His true people. In the case of those who will hear His voice, He will be there to guide them. And once they have learned their lesson through their sufferings then they will enjoy great prosperity. Analysis. a O people who dwell in Zion at... read more
