Expositor's Bible Commentary - Isaiah 42:1-25

CHAPTER XVONE GOD, ONE PEOPLEIsaiah 41:8-20; Isaiah 42:1-25; Isaiah 43:1-28WE have been listening to the proclamation of a monotheism so absolute, that, as we have seen, modern critical philosophy, in surveying the history of religion, can find for it no rival among the faiths of the world. God has been exalted before us, in character so perfect, in dominion so universal, that neither the conscience nor the imagination of man can add to the general scope of the vision. Jesus and His Cross shall... read more

John Calvin

Geneva Study Bible - Isaiah 42:19

42:19 Who [is] blind, but my {u} servant? or deaf, as my {x} messenger [that] I sent? who [is] blind as [he that is] {y} perfect, and blind as the LORD’S servant?(u) That is, Israel, which would have most light because of my Law.(x) The priest to whom my word is committed, who would not only hear it himself but cause others to hear it.(y) As the priests and prophets that would be lights to others? 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

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 42:17-25

Here, as in the former chapters, the contrast is drawn between the Lord Jehovah, and the idols of the nations around; and the striking difference which marks the several worshippers is made between them that serve the Lord, and them that serve him not. And in the midst, a beautiful allusion is also made to the person of Christ. And who that reads the Prophet's account, and compares it with the Evangelist's, but must be struck with the wonderful agreement? Isaiah 50:4-6 ; Matthew 27:28-31 . The... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 42:18-25

18-25 Observe the call given to this people, and the character given of them. Multitudes are ruined for want of observing that which they cannot but see; they perish, not through ignorance, but carelessness. The Lord is well-pleased in the making known his own righteousness. For their sins they were spoiled of all their possessions. This fully came to pass in the destruction of the Jewish nation. There is no resisting, nor escaping God's anger. See the mischief sin makes; it provokes God to... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Isaiah 42:18-25

The Wrath of God upon Israel v. 18. Hear, ye deaf, and look, ye blind, that ye may see, so the prophet now addresses the people of Israel in general, on account of their spiritual callousness, which is rapidly turning into hardness of heart. v. 19. Who is blind but My servant? the reference here being to Israel itself, or deaf, as My messenger that I sent? not hearing a word of the message which the Lord entrusted to him to be given to the Gentiles. Who is blind as he that is perfect, one... read more
