以賽亞書 45:20 RCUVTS

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Isaiah 45:1-25

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 45:1-25

Precious Promises Isaiah 45-47 In the fifty-fifth chapter we come upon the beginning of many exceeding great and precious promises. However long we may be detained by imagery that is hardly explicable, or by prophecies that appear too remote to be of use to ourselves, we are ever and anon refreshed with doctrines and promises which have a direct reference to our deepest necessities and purest desires. We need more than a grand Bible, as we need more than a high heaven to gaze upon. The heaven... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Isaiah 45:20-21

I have often read, and I hope with increasing pleasure and profit, the blessedness of the union here made, and by Jehovah himself, of his own glorious attributes, as manifested in the work of redemption:, A just God and a Saviour. Here is, at once, an everlasting distinction made between the true God, and the whole tribe of dunghill-deities. Nothing, in all the code of idol-worship, proposed such an assemblage, as that of blending justice with salvation: and it is only in the person and work of... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 45:20-25

20-25 The nations are exhorted to draw near to Jehovah. None besides is able to help; he is the Saviour, who can save without the assistance of any, but without whom none can save. If the heart is brought into the obedience of Christ, the knee will cheerfully obey his commands. To Christ men shall come from every nation for blessings; all that hate his cause shall be put to shame, and all believers shall rejoice in him as their Friend and Portion. All must come to him: may we now come to him as... read more

The Glorification of Israel an Appeal to the World v. 14. Thus saith the Lord, in foretelling the overthrow of the Gentiles everywhere, The labor of Egypt, that which the Egyptians had gained by their labor, and merchandise of Ethiopia, what the Ethiopians gathered by their commercial activities, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, the inhabitants of Meroe in Upper Egypt being known far and wide on account of their great size, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine, freely... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Isaiah 45:14-25

a Call to the Ends of the Earth Isaiah 45:14-25 As the prophet reviews God’s method of delivering His people-so unexpected and so wonderful-he cannot restrain the ejaculation: Thou art a God that hidest thyself! “Deep in unfathomable mines of never-failing skill, He treasures up His bright designs and works His sovereign will.” You do not see how God is going to save you; but most certainly His Angel will redeem you from all evil. God contrasts Himself with idols, Isaiah 45:20 . We can... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Isaiah 45:1-25

The fifth of these messages of Jehovah is a charge to Cyrus. First of all, it utters to him the promises of God which are intended to be his strength in carrying out the divine purpose. These all emphasize the ability and activity of Jehovah. He next declares the purpose for which His servant is called and equipped. It is a twofold purpose. First, for Israel's sake; and, second, in order that the world may know that He alone is God. He then declares His power to be universal, and the charge... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 45:1-25

YAHWEH IS ABOUT TO ACT SO AS TO ESTABLISH HIS PEOPLE AND PREPARE THE WAY FOR HIS SERVANT (Isaiah 44:24 to Isaiah 48:22 ). As with what has gone before it is necessary for us to determine the viewpoint from which we will see these narratives, and in order to do so we must put ourselves in the shoes of Isaiah. Chapters 1-39 were mainly behind him, Hezekiah was dead, and what lay before him was the future in terms of Manasseh’s reign. That reign had not had a promising beginning. Manasseh had... read more
