Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 30:6

30:6 The {d} burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from which [come] the young and the old lion, the viper and flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures upon the humps of camels, to a people [that] shall not profit [them].(d) That is, a heavy sentence or prophecy against the beasts that carried their treasures into Egypt, by the wilderness, which was south from Judah, signifying that if the beasts... read more

James Gray

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

Joseph Parker

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

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Isaiah 30:6

Burden. This title seems unnecessary, and may be added by some Jew, (chap. xxi. 13.) though the Chaldean and others explain it, "They carry on their beasts, presents to the south," to the nations of Arabia and Egypt, infested with lions, &c. The rest of the prophecy is against the Jews, who cannot well be styled beasts of the south. (Calmet) --- Basilisk. The ibis devours many serpents on their flight from Arabia and Egypt. (Herodotus ii. 5.; Solin. xxxii.) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 30:1-7

1-7 It was often the fault and folly of the Jews, that when troubled by their neighbours on one side, they sought for succour from others, instead of looking up to God. Nor can we avoid the dreadful consequences of adding sin to sin, but by making the righteousness of Christ our refuge, and seeking for the sanctification of the Holy Spirit. Men have always been prone to lean to their own understandings, but this will end in their shame and misery. They would not trust in God. They took much... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 30:1-14

The Alliance with Egypt and the Rebellious People v. 1. Woe to the rebellious children, stubborn, obstinate, refractory people, saith the Lord, that take counsel, making plans of their own, but not of Me, without consulting Him, and that cover with a covering, weave an alliance, form a league, but not of My Spirit, not suggested or commanded by the Holy Spirit speaking through the Lord's messengers, that they may add sin to sin! The alliance of Judah with Egypt was not only undertaken... read more

2. THE PROPHET AS HE OUGHT TO BE, AND AS HE OUGHT NOT TO BEIsaiah 30:6-146 The burden of the beasts of the south:4Into the land of trouble and anguish,From whence come 5the young and old lion,The viper and fiery flying serpent,They will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses,And their treasures upon the bunches of camels,To a people that shall not profit them.7 For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose;Therefore 6have I cried 7concerning this, Their... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 30:1-17

Fatal Reliance on Human Aid Isaiah 30:1-17 Toward the close of the 8th century, b.c. Jerusalem sent ambassadors to seek help from Egypt against Assyria, in distinct defiance of God’s repeated warnings. Isaiah denounced this as adding sin to sin. Even though their princes reached Zoan and Hanes, capital cities, and succeeded in their object, it would not help them. The beasts of burden might traverse the deserts with presents and bribes, but all would be in vain. These truths, however, were... read more
