以賽亞書 42:16 RCUVTS

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 42:13-17

CHAPTER VIIITHE PASSION OF GODIsaiah 42:13-17AT the beginning of chapter 42 we reach one of those distinct stages, the frequent appearance of which in our prophecy assures us, that, for all its mingling and recurrent style, the prophecy is a unity with a distinct, if somewhat involved, progress of thought. For while chapters 40 and 41 establish the sovereignty and declare the character of the One True God before His people and the heathen, chapter 42 takes what is naturally the next step, of... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 42:16

42:16 And I will bring the {t} blind by a way [that] they knew not; I will lead them in paths [that] they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do for them, and not forsake them.(t) That is, my poor people, who are in perplexity and care. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 42:1-25

ISAIAH INTRODUCTION TO PART TWO The chapters of Part 2 (chaps. 40-46) are chiefly millennial, and so different from the prevailing themes preceding, as to raise a query whether they were not written by some other author a second, or deutero-Isaiah, as some call him. We do not hold that opinion, the reasons for which are briefly stated in the author’s Primers of the Faith. In Synthetic Bible Studies, it was found convenient to treat this part as a single discourse though doubtless, such is not... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 42:5-25

Majestic Claims Isa 42:5-25 That is a grand preamble. Words of this character excite thrilling expectation. Go to Oriential lands for magnificence of description, for redundance of self-eulogium; read the Babylonian records to find how ancient kings adorned themselves with imposing titles. Something must always be allowed for Orientalism; it is not irreverent to say that something must be allowed for Orientalism in certain parts of the Bible itself. Here is a title which, standing by itself,... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Isaiah 42:14-16

God's Terribleness and Gentleness Isa 42:14-16 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. It is better to fall into the hands of God than into the hands of men. Our God is a consuming fire God is love. The combination of great power and great restraint, and, indeed, the combination of opposite qualities and uses generally, is well known in the ordinary arrangements of civilised life and the daily operation of the laws of nature. The measure of greatness is the measure of... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 42:15-16

Nothing can be more blessed than these promises, when we behold them as our own, from a conscious oneness with Christ, and when we live upon them, from living upon him. Then we see that he who thus undertakes to be everything to his people, doth and will fulfil; and though we cool and tire in our love, the Lord never falters in his; Zephaniah 3:14-17 . read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 42:13-17

13-17 The Lord will appear in his power and glory. He shall cry, in the preaching of his word. He shall cry aloud in the gospel woes, which must be preached with gospel blessings, to awaken a sleeping world. He shall conquer by the power of his Spirit. And those that contradict and blaspheme his gospel, he shall put to silence and shame; and that which hinders its progress shall be taken out of the way. To those who by nature were blind, God will show the way to life and happiness by Jesus... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 42:10-17

The Joy Over the Judgment of Condemnation upon the Ungodly v. 10. Sing unto the Lord a new song, Psalms 33:3; Psalms 40:3, a hymn of praise in honor of the new things promised, a psalm lauding His mercy in the Savior, and His praise from the end of the earth, so that the whole earth resounds with it, ye that go down to the sea, the seafaring inhabitants of the isles and coasts of the Mediterranean Sea, and all that is therein, all the marine animals being called upon to join in this praise... read more
